Genting Poker Series Sheffield starts today

Wednesday, 21 November 2012

The Genting Poker Series hits Sheffield this week and it's shaping up to be one for the record books. A huge crowd is expected in the Steel City's Genting Club over the next few days with the £100,000 guaranteed prize pool set to be well and truly smashed.

The first of two opening flights to the £400+£30 Main Event gets under way at 1pm tomorrow with a second starting at the same time on Friday. Players will start with stacks of 25,000 with a 60-minute clock.


There is plenty of side action scheduled right up until Sunday, including a Rivers NLHE event which sees each player dealt their own river card face down and a Button Poker contest in which whoever wins the hand also wins the dealer button. The full schedule can be found below.
