The Poker Million is back, and this time it’s bigger than ever.
With Ladbrokes injecting a cool one million into the prize pool, the lucky qualifiers will be fighting over a massive $4,120,000 in prize money, making Poker Million V Europe’s biggest tournament to date.
With 72 players expected to compete in this comp, Cork is sure to be an exciting place to be when the comp kicks off on Saturday May 13th. The location will be the Macau Casino and Card Club, where the hopeful combatants will be looking to emulate, if not exceed, the success of previous winner Anthony Jones (pictured left) who received a large oversized comedy cheque for 1 million bucks.
Ken Corkery, manager at the plush Macau Casino commented, ‘We are delighted to be staging a qualifier for the Ladbrokespoker.com Poker Million and to give our players a shot at going to the very top in one of the world's most famous poker tournaments.’
But wait, there are more earth-shattering statements…
Nigel Blower, Marketing Manager at Ladbrokespoker.com added, ‘As Europe's biggest online poker site it is only fitting that Ladbrokespoker.com is behind the showpiece Poker Million tournament. This year we have broken from tradition and are staging a limited number of land-based qualifiers. With Cork's Macau Casino being such a progressive, sizeable and plush venue, and considering the city is easily accessible by air, it was a logical choice for a Poker Million satellite.’
With so much at stake, it seems as though this is an event not to be missed… so be there, or be square.
