Los grandes torneos de póquer que se celebran en España a menudo están vinculados con las páginas de póquer online. En 2008 España acogió la Final del World Poker Crown en la que los participantes jugaron por un primer premio de 1 millón de dólares. 888.com Poker envió a la final a diez jugadores que se habían hecho con los primeros puestos de la clasificación en las rondas preliminares.

there are some nice changes for this year. the ept is now sponsored by duracell batteries and there will be free charging stations for smartphones and tablets at the table.this combined with the free internet access (offered since last year) is a really nice thing to have for the long hours at the table

Well now,....that means that soon enough, those EPTLive freeroll donkfests will start showing up on PokerStars. I'm liking those freerollls BIG TIME because I always do very well in those raking in the free cash!!!
You just have to play conservatively and let all the dummies knock each other out, and before you know it,...you're in the money...!
Unfortunately though,...those things are RIFE with them facebook freerollin' cockroaches with multiple accounts....REALLY BAD!!!

Actually thought about taken off to Europe for two weeks with the wife for a vacation since I haven't been there in about 8 years. It would be nice to stop by the EPT just to get a glimpse of the action. Wish they'd play it on the tube!

Don't know if you'd find too much vodka down there.... the place is awash in rum....Jamaican Rum mon.... and weeeeeeeeed, No Problem mon....
Hey,...our TV channels are FLOODED with EPT televised events. Many reruns from years past,....and many replays of recent events....
Us North Americans tend to think of Europeans as like being from some other planet in a strange far off galaxy somewhere,....but when you watch them,....it's easy to see they are pretty much just like US...!

That's truly an option I could consider! I mean it's not a long trip and I could either fly in or drive to Miami and take the cruise ship out. It's probably Grand Bahama Island isn't it? I mean Nassau's nice, but Grand probably has more potential. Anyway I'll keep you posted on that. Definitely within the realm of happening!

G'day mates
Well this should be a great event. Would love to do the Grand Bahama event. It could probable make that one happen next year. My health would be the biggest factor keeping me away.

Yeah like the EPT they make it lively we all know that sometimes, we have to wait for like hours before a good action take place and with the series they just cut to the action and we can see it unfolds and that makes our day!
Anyway good luck to the players, they are good and hope they can produce a show for us, anyway where is Hellmuth lol, i really like this guy!!
