Here's the introduction to get you started:The Cyberathlete Professional League (CPL) houses the toughest, baddest competition for "professional" gamers in the world. Clans from all over the globe flock to Dallas, Texas, to play some Counter-Strike with one little twist: bounty.

Their next event—the Pentium 4 Processor Summer Championship 2002 Event—starts next Saturday, July 20th. Esports fans from all over the world are anticipating the thrilling battles to come. With a total of $100,000 on the line, the stakes are very high.Certainly a useful read if you're unsure as to why so much fuss is surrounding this event, or if you just want to get into that Pre-Championship hype.
