Hollywood Poker Looks To London

Thursday 31st July 2008

Hollywood Poker, the high profile poker site which allows players to mix with the stars, is offering a number of seats at London Live in September 2008. There will quite literally be millions of dollars up for grabs as London bids to become a name and a face in the world of poker.

Players at Pokerlistings will be able to get involved in a number of freeroll games with the winners receiving entry tickets worth $300+20 for the London Live Main Event Package Online Finals. This promises to be a great tournament with Hollywood Poker offering a total of five $24,000 packages in the run up to London Live.

The mix of traditional poker players and celebrity poker players was a marketing dream for Hollywood Poker and has literally put the poker site on the map. London Live is one of the better tournaments in Europe and one which is growing in popularity each year. It would seem sensible for London to make a play for the main tournaments as it is literally involved in every other sport or pastime you could think of!

While the online segment of London Live will be very interesting, the main table event will be on a different level.
