Betfair Poker LIVE Heads to London

Taking place from Feb. 17 to Feb. 19, Betfair Poker LIVE London is set to be one of the most exciting events to start off a big 2012. Not only will the event feature a big prize pool, but there will be an array of side event and cash game action throughout the tournament period, so it really is not to be missed! The event costs $600+$50 to enter and while players can buy-in directly, we encourage you to take to the felt at Betfair Poker and try to win a seat for a pittance of the cost. Many qualifiers and satellites will be running in the lead up to the event so be sure to try and lock up a tournament package. Betfair Poker is also offering players a little extra incentive to play in the Betfair Poker LIVE London event. Any player who has a real money Betfair Poker account and has funds in the account before the start of Day 1 and then goes on to win the event, will be awarded with a $1,400 tournament package to the next Betfair LIVE event! In addition, the player who finishes on the bubble will be awarded a free $120 satellite ticket for an online Betfair LIVE satellite final. The last Betfair LIVE London event was held earlier this year and there were 171 hopefuls who took to the felt and battled it out for a share of the £39,000 prize pool. It is was Arttu Pitkakangas from Finland who ended up being too good for his opponents, taking down the top prize after two grueling days of intense poker action. The event is set to be bigger than ever in 2012, so be sure to head to Betfair Poker and begin planning your trip to London and start your year with a bang!
