8th August 2012 (LONDON, UK)- Once again, the London Poker Festival will position the UK capital at the centre of the poker universe this September, with almost 80 events spread across eight different card rooms and over £1m in prize money up for grabs and plenty of guaranteed prize pools. Coordinated by Bluff Europe Magazine, the festival includes tournaments and cash games to suit all pockets, plus parties, comedy nights, live music, a poker academy and the British Poker Awards.
Main events include the LCI UK Poker Tour, The Unibet Open London, The Big Bluff Five-O, the GUKPT, The English Poker Open, The September Festival Main Event and the 888.com Superstack Series. However, the festival offers tournaments for every level of player, with many of the participating card rooms putting on their own special events in honour of the festival.
