Back for its fourth rip-roaring year, Bluff Europe, in association with PokerStars.com, once again presents the star-spangled British Poker Awards.
Consisting of 17 glorious categories, the British Poker Awards are designed to honour all the very best things in the poker industry. Whether that be the top individual player, the finest tournament, or even the most excellent poker software, we’ve truly covered all the bases in our attempt to ensure that there will be credit where credit’s due. The nominees in each category have been carefully selected by our own dedicated crack-team of industry experts, who have been working flat out to get it right. This prodigious poker panel is made up of none other than PokerNews’ Matthew Pitt, PokerListings’ Barry Carter, the “Voice of Poker” Jesse May, seasoned bloggers Jen Mason and Lee Davy, and last but not least, Bluff Europe’s very own Philip Conneller. They’ve done their upmost to pick the right people, but now it’s up to you to choose the winners. Vote for your favourite British poker players online now at www.thebritishpokerawards.com. Last year’s man of the moment was high-stakes superstar Sam Trickett, who took away the prizes for Best Cash Game Player, Best Tournament Player, and Player of the Year.
