Nottingham Stop Added to Genting Poker Series

Friday, 18 October 2013

The Genting Poker Series has added another live stop to its season 2 schedule with Dusk Till Dawn in Nottingham hosting January's £100,000 guaranteed event. The Nottingham leg replaces GPS online which was originally scheduled for November.

“The GPS series is all about grass roots poker, with many opportunities for the man in the street to qualify and win life changing money, so I am very happy to be hosting a leg at DTD,” said Dusk Till Dawn head honcho Rob Yong “I hope this is just the start of more collaborative projects between Genting and DTD as we both channel our energy in to promoting poker in the UK and attracting more new players into this wonderful game."
An online day 1a will kick off proceedings on 8 January followed by two further live day 1s on 9 and 10 January. Day 2 will follow on Saturday 11 January with the eventual winner crowned on Sunday 12 January. As usual there will be a full range of satellite opportunities, both live and online, with details set to be announced in the near future.
“We are delighted that Dusk Till Dawn will be hosting a leg of the Genting Poker Series,” added Genting Poker manager Kevin Proctor. “The event continues to go from strength to strength, players love the deep stack format. 60 minute levels and a starting stack of 25,000 chips mean every player enjoys plenty of action, no matter what the standard of their game.
“With such big money available in the main event it is no surprise that the side games are pretty strong too and we make sure that the duration of each leg has games of every value to suit every type of player. What makes the GPS special is the mix of recreational players and professionals it attracts and online qualifiers have a good record of scalping the big names in the GPS.”
The 2013 Genting Poker Series draws to a close in Sheffield in December with a guaranteed prize pool of £200,000 on offer in the £800+£80 Main Event. Qualifiers are up and running now at GentingPoker.com where new players that deposit £10 will receive £40 as well as a free Genting Poker Series satellite token worth £5.50.
