Euro Finals of Poker series starts today

Tuesday, 1 February 2011

The Aviation Club in Paris, one of the best poker venues in Europe, will be the venue for some top class tournament action this month, as the Euro Finals of Poker (EFOP) head to the French capital.

The two-week tournament series starts today and features a host of top quality events with top billing going to the five-day, €5,000 WPT National Diamond Championship event which starts on 9th February. Some of the biggest names in the game will also be on hand for the €10,000 High Roller tournament which gets under way on 14th February.


Dave 'Devilfish' Ulliott won last year's Paris Main Event pocketing €152,000 in the process.


The Aviation Club will also be the venue for the European Poker Awards on 13th February. As expected, British players dominated the nominations and can expect a good bag of trophies on the night. The full list can be seen by clicking here.


Despite the swanky location and the high buy-in events there's still plenty for players with more limited bankrolls to enjoy. EFOP features a number of championship side events with very affordable buy-ins as well as satellites into the marquee events. The full schedule can be seen below:
