Online sportsbook and poker giant has become the latest addition to Europe’s biggest poker festival.
Tuesday 20th July 2010
Organisers of this year’s Poker In The Park festival have signed a partnership deal with Bodog.com that will see the online sportsbook and poker giant serve as an official sponsor.
Poker In The Park will take place on September 2 and 3 from London’s Leicester Square with Bodog.com signing up as a sponsor for one of the event’s pair of ‘poker domes’, which will be running around-the-clock sit-and-go competitions.
Bluff Europe revealed that last year’s single ‘poker dome’ proved so popular with over 20,000 visitors that it decided to implement a second for this autumn’s event in order to cope with demand.
“Bodog.com is about providing entertainment and poker players love the chance to play live and that's what we're offering right in the heart of London,” said Magnus Olby, Marketing Manager for Bodog Europe.
“Obviously, we'll add a few Bodog.com touches too so watch out for some hot girls and great freebies.”
Poker In The Park is Europe’s largest poker event and Bluff Europe has revealed that this year’s edition is set to be even bigger with more marquees, activities, big name brands and live poker while interested parties can get all of the latest news by visiting PokerInThePark.com.
The festival’s previous edition in August featured two days of free lectures from some of the biggest names in poker including world champions Jamie Gold and Peter Eastgate.
Alongside the live sit-and-go competitions, visitors can expect numerous free strategy talks from some of the world’s top players this autumn alongside autograph signings, cut-price deals on the latest books and merchandise and special celebrity guests including current WBF World Champion Evander Holyfield demonstrating the software behind RealDealPoker.com
