The British Poker Awards

Wednesday, 1 October 2014

Voting is open now.....

Best Poker Tattoo. Slowest Slowroll. Funniest Online Screen Name. These are just three categories that won't be included at the 2014 British Poker Awards. However the ceremony, which is set to return for its fifth year, will recognise the game's best, brightest, funniest, and much, much more.

An elite independent panel of judges, including PokerNews' Matthew Pitt, PokerStrategy's Barry Carter, CalvinAyre.com's Lee Davy, RankingHero's Nicolas Levi, Poker Europa's Nic Szeremeta, and the 'Voice of Poker' Jesse May have joined the Bluff Europe editorial team in drawing up a comprehensive shortlist in 12 Readers' Choice Categories. Now it's up to you to have the final say in determining who walks away with top honours at what promises to be a ceremony to remember.

Voting is open now, so head over to www.thebritishpokerawards.com and have your say. We've even got a couple of new categories just to spice things up.

Details of the date and venue for the 2014 British Poker Awards will be announced shortly, so keep your eyes peeled.

Judging panel: Bluff Europe, Calvin Ayre, PokerStrategy.com, RankingHero, Jesse May, Poker News.
