888poker Introduces New 888Live Festival Series in London
888poker introduced a new festival offering, 888Live Festivals, with its start in London this October that claims to be bigger, better and different from any live event out there.
Hosted by 888poker Ambassador Kara Scott, the 888Live London Festival will kick off from Aspers Casino and continue for 11 days, Oct. 13 through 23.
The prize pools offered at the London Festival are expected to be larger than any of 888poker's other live events, with 888poker's total prize pool estimation over $500,000.
Chris Moorman, Dominik Nitsche and Sofia L?vgren are expected to make appearances, among other poker professionals, but they will also carry a $888 bounty on their heads.
This 888Live Festival is distinct from others 888poker offers in its various tournament offerings (ranging from ��120 Lightening 6-Max to a ��2,000 High Roller), wider range of buy ins and larger guarantees. These events are held at different locations three times a year.
