Genting Poker Series: Launch of the second stage yesterday
The second stage of the tournament Genting Poker Series started at Fox Poker Club in London on Wednesday, March 28, 2012. The kick off of the main event took place at around 1:00 pm. If the first stage which was held at Star City Casino in Birmingham drew 365 players, this new phase promises to accumulate such a huge success. Moreover, the principle of proposing the format re-entry at this event is a major reason for the success of the tournament. Note that those who have lost their 25,000 chips can place a new order by paying £ 430. Players have therefore more chances to persevere and reach the final table.
Besides the Main Event of $ 430 buy-in, the organizers also planned to offer to participants side event tournaments. However, due to space constraints, the side event will be held at Mint Casino and Palm Beach Casino. On March 28, a No Limit Hold'em tournament of £ 110 was held. On March 31, the poker room of Palm Beach will be also open to fans of the game who wish to participate in the No Limit Hold'em of $ 220 entry fee. The final of the Main event will take place on Saturday. And on Sunday, April 1st, a High Roller tournament of £ 550 will be held at Palm Beach. As a reminder, the winner of the first stage, Rusian Vlasov was entitled to a prize of £ 16,600 and a ticket for the final open for £ 1,600. The champion of the second stage could also come away with a nice reward while qualifying for this final event.
