EPT London Starts Tomorrow; Seats Already Sold Out

PokerStars European Poker Tour Event in London is set to begin tomorrow and remarkably it has already sold out. The event had five hundred seats available for players and there are not any left. Over one hundred and thirty of those seats were won online at PokerStars.

The event will have a guaranteed £1 million first-place prize and also a £1 million high rollers event. This is the fifth season of the European Poker Tour and the television coverage has helped the tour tremendously.

It could be quite possible that among the 130+ online players who hold a seat in the event a new poker star could be found. Several players have found fame and fortune by winning big in one major event and then going on to be sponsored by big name poker sites.

Of course, the pros will be in attendance trying to maintain their status as the best and brightest poker players in the business but it will be interesting to see if a young newcomer can outshine the pros.

A representative for PokerStars stated: “With the promise of £1,000,000 for first place and a special High Rollers event as well, London EPT is set to be one of the best EPT events of all time." It could very well be as the seats have sold out and the excitement is building.
