One of the biggest events in UK card playing - Poker in the Park - got underway this afternoon in Leicester Square, London.
Bluff Europe magazine's editor-in-chief Michael Caselli suggested that the two-day poker extravaganza will be huge and that there will be plenty of activities for people to enjoy.
"Poker in the Park is the biggest exhibition in the sport and it is sure to be entertaining and educational for poker enthusiasts of all levels," he commented.
The festival is taking place outside the Casino at the Empire building and many of the gambling industry's biggest names are set to be there, including PKR, Poker Kings, Cardoza Books, Ace Poker and Fox Poker Club.
Neil Channing, Ian Frazer and Dave 'Devilfish' Ulliott are among the famous poker professionals who will be on hand to speak to the press.
Channing and Ulliott are set to take part in the PartyPoker.com Poker Den: The Big Game III next month.
