The Ladbrokes European Online Championship of Poker will be back on October with two weeks of online poker action and lots of added money.

According to Ladbrokes Poker the LEOCOP IV is the longest running and biggest added-money online poker tournament in Europe. This year the tournament will run from October 26th to November 9th, with a Masters Event running on November 17th.

The main event will take place November 9th and features a $1,000+$100 buy-in. In addition, Ladbrokes Poker will be adding an extra $150,000 to the main event prize pool.

Other events will include Texas Hold'em events, Omaha events with a mixture of freezeout and rebuy structures. Ladbrokes Poker will also be adding between $2,500 and $250,000 to all the events mentioned.

"As you know, we put a lot of emphasis on the importance of community and the LEOCOP is like our annual family gathering. Of course, the kudos and the massive prize pools are also very good reasons that players Europe-wide play this fantastic event “said Edward Ihre, Ladbrokes Poker MD.

Ladbrokes will also be running a leaderboard during the 2008 LEOCOP with over $14,000 in prizes awarded to the top 10 players. The players who make it into the top 80 on the board will also be invited to play in the $120,000 LEOCOP Master Events freeroll.
