Team PKR head to the Midlands in search of $1m...
Team PKR Pro members Andrew 'golfpro699' Teng, Ashley Hames and Karl ‘discomonkey’ Fenton have joined PKR regular doctorfun at the English Poker Open in Nottingham. With a $5,000 buy-in and guaranteed prize pool of $1m the event has also drawn some of the biggest names in poker.
Doyle Brunson, Phil Hellmuth, Annette Orbestad and WSOP November Niner James Akenhead are just a few of the big names that make up the star studded line-up.
The action kicked off at 14:00 GMT today and will continue until the Main Event final table on Thursday at 15:00 GMT.
How will Team PKR fare in this shark-infested talent pool? PKR Marketing Director Simon Prodger was brimming with optimism just before the the start saying, “With PKR player’s recent run of form with zlatan35 winning the APT Main Event and Beyne taking down the APPT High Rollers event I’m confident that we’ll get a great result, maybe even a win!”
