Poker in the Park an unparalleled success!

Eleven UK Pub Poker Leagues brought their players down to battle each other and the public across the PKR felts in hourly tournaments taht made up Poker in the Park.  Right from the start, the 70 events were packed, with dozens of people on the reserve lists and more lining up for the next event.  Each tournament was shootout style with the winner of each table progressing on to a final table at the end of the hour.  The players were loving it, with many coming back time and time again for their shot at the crystal trophies.

Some of our well known PKR players came down to test their luck, so a shout goes out to Dudestorm, NexusWR, The Squeeze, Chivalrousgent, and Tigerwing, as well as our two Team PKR Pro members Discomonkey and James666 that made the journey.  As ever, Discomonkey continued his winning streak, taking down the Masters Poker League event.  You can see his photo, along with all tournament winners, in the next issue of Bluff Magazine.

Alongside the play in the PKR Poker Dome, players got to rub shoulders with poker celebs, with the likes of Jamie Gold, Peter Eastgate, Neil Channing, Michael Greco, Ian Fraser, Tony Cascarino and Liv Boeree speaking in the lecture tent.  And for some added glamour, the lovely Xhilarate girls were offering free massages, while brave lads got to take their pictures with the models from Nuts Magazine.

All in all, a great two days, so if you didn’t make it down to this year's Poker in the Park, be sure to keep your calendar clear for next August!
