PKR and Fox Poker Club offer new breed of poker festival

Innovative online poker site PKR.com and The Fox Poker Club are teaming up to present a new breed of poker festival that promises to bring the poker community with high quality, dealer dealt tournaments offering participants plenty of action and affordable buy-ins.

Running for a full 28 days between October 11th and November 7th, 2010, the PKR.com 'London Calling' festival will offer a total of 57 tournaments with the majority of buy-ins ranging from £20 to £100. While No Limit Hold'em will be well represented, there will also PLO, PLO8, Heads Up events and a two day H.O.R.S.E event.

The festival will close with a £300 buy-in main event. There will also be leaderboard running throughout the festival that will see players earn points based on finishing position. These points will then be converted to starting stacks in a special freeroll to be held at PKR Poker room.

"It's been our ambition to put on an event like this for some time, and we're delighted that London now has the perfect venue in which to do so. With regular buy-ins ranging from £20 'London Calling' is for the huge number of people who'd love to play a high-quality, dealer dealt tournament but find most poker tours and festivals are too high for their bankroll." said PKR Marketing Director Simon Prodger.
