Wednesday 16th April 2008



BluffEurope.com, the site for Europe’s leading poker magazine, has announced that it is giving players the chance to test themselves against two of the world’s best poker players for free next month.

Organised in association with online casino Betfair.com, the freeroll competition will take place May 20 and see Annette ‘Annette_15’ Obrestad and Sorel ‘Imper1um’ Mizzi take on all comers with a $250 reward on their heads.

As sponsors of the two poker professionals, Betfair.com has added an additional $1,500 to the prize pool along with the bounties, bringing the total prize pool to $2,000. Players interested in taking part must register at BluffEurope.com through this link and then use the code ‘BLUFF’.

Once registered, players that generate ten Betfair points, which is equivalent to one dollar in rake, will be qualified to take part and pre-registered for the tournament.

Norwegian Obrestad is an online poker prodigy who triumphed at her inaugural World Series of Poker Europe main event to take away one million dollars and break the record as the youngest ever bracelet winner.

Mizzi is a 21-year-old Toronto native fast becoming a force to be reckoned with in the live poker world. He’s won over half a million dollars at PokerStars.com alongside securing outright victories in the Sunday Warm Up for $80,000 and many of the world’s toughest multi-table tournaments.
