We're delighted to say that The British Poker Awards are back and that voting is now open at www.thebritishpokerawards.com.
Poker fans can choose their favourite performers in more than a dozen categories in both the live and online game. There's also the chance to recognise the unsung heroes that have made big contributions to the growth and success of the British game.PokerStars Team Online player Alex Millar picked up the top gong at last year's star-studded awards at London's Hippodrome Casino. Millar, better known to online railbirds as Kanu7, was named Player of the Year."After the overwhelming success of the 2013 awards, we can't wait to once again recognise the top talents in British poker," said Michael Caselli, editor-in-chief of Bluff Europe. "We have seen some fantastic performances from British players in 2014, as they have shown they can mix it with the world's best both live and online," he added. Once again, Bluff Europe has picked the brains of an expert panel to draw up the shortlist. Judges include PokerNews' Matthew Pitt, PokerStrategy's Barry Carter, RankingHero's Nicolas Levi, CalvinAyre.com's Lee Davy, Late Night Poker creator Nic Szeremeta and 'Voice of Poker' Jesse May. Organisers have spiced the action up this time round with the addition of couple of new categories. Most intriguing is the 'Hand of the Year', where the voting public will be able to select the most amazing live poker hand that the world has seen in 2014.Fans will once again be able to rub shoulders with the great and the good of the British game at the ceremony itself.
