Foxwoods uses online registration for live poker tournaments.

Shuffle up and deal. Foxwoods Resort Casino is taking a new approach to recruit players for this week's series of tournaments.

New England's biggest poker room is partnering with PTseats.com to provide online tournament registration for the $1 million guaranteed "Mega Stack Challenge XIII" that runs this Tuesday through Saturday.

But wait, there's more. The first 500 registrants for the $2,000 Mega Stack Challenge will receive a voucher for two tickets to Cirque Dreams - Illumination at the MGM Grand Theater at Foxwoods.

These games are not for the faint of heart.
