If you’ve ever wanted to be a part of history then now is your chance since 2009 marks the inaugural year of the English Poker Open. This highly anticipated poker tournament is going to be held at the DuskTillDawn Casino in fabled Nottingham, and the Main Event will feature a $1,000,000 prize pool! What’s really cool is that poker superstars such as
Phil Hellmuth and
Doyle Brunson have already anted up the $5,300 for their Main Event seats.
But you won’t have to spend quite that much getting your Main Event seat for the
English Poker Open because
SportsBook Poker is still giving away $7,000 prize packages. The $7,000 covers the $5,000 + $300 Main Event entry fee and leaves $1,700 left over for travel and hotel expenses.
There are almost 3 weeks left for you to claim one of these $7k packages since SportsBook will be running EPO poker satellites until the end of August. You can buy directly into the English Poker Open Final on Sundays at 4 pm for $268 where the main prize is the aforementioned $7,000 prize package.
The $55 English Poker Open Semi-Final satellites run on Sundays at 1 pm with the prize here being a seat in the EPO Final. English Poker Open Satellite R&A tournaments also award a seat in the EPO Final and the cost to enter these daily poker satellites is $11. For those who really want to win their way to Nottingham the cheap way, SportsBook offers players $3.30 EPO Semi-Final Qualifier R&A tourneys. Just think how sweet it would be to compete for $1,000,000 with the likes of Phil Hellmuth and Doyle Brunson after spending just $3.30!
