the Grosvenor UK Poker Tour
August 12, 2008
Take on Europe’s finest as the Grosvenor UK Poker Tour heads for the South-East coast of England. Join the Team for sun, sea and suckouts…
After the success of their journey to the third Leg of the Grosvenor UK Poker Tour (GUKPT) in London, Team PKR travel to Thanet (Kent, UK) for Leg 8 of the GUKPT. The three-day $2,000 buy-in championship event kicks off on 16 October, with players from all over Europe converging on the G Casino Westwood Cross for a shot at the first prize, anticipated to be more than $100,000.
Winners of recent 2008 Tour events have so far taken home as much as $111,000 (Newcastle, May 2008), $176,000 (Manchester, April 2008) and $233,000 (London, March 2008). All this for a buy-in of just $2,000!
The location
After the bright lights of London, Manchester and Newcastle, the Tour travels to picturesque Thanet, an area of Kent boasting popular seaside towns, award-winning beaches, rural heritage and military history. Championed by Turner and Dickens, Thanet boasts 26 miles of stunning British coast to help shed the frustration of beats!
Not your usual poker destination, Leg 8 of the GUKPT should provide a new slant on the traditional poker tournament city-break, and great opportunity to play amid the relaxed setting of English seaside life. Use your rest-day wisely – visit the RAF Museums, Tudor Mansions or the majestic seaside resort of Margate! One thing’s for sure, you won’t be short of unique opportunities…
The PKR route to stardom
Reaching one of the two $300 buy-in Monthly Finals couldn’t be easier with the huge range of STT and MTT qualifiers at PKR. From August until the beginning of October, PKR will run a series of qualifiers to the two Monthly Finals, with at least eight $3,000 packages (including approximately $1,000 for expenses) on offer in each Final.
Buy-in direct, or take the most popular route through satellites with Stage 1, Stage 2 and Stage 3 MTTs. For those with a passion for Sit & Go’s, why not check out the $1.54 and $7 routes to Stage 2 and 3, or take your chances in one of the famous lottery satellites. You can also buy tickets to GUKPT Stage 1, 3 and 3 MTTs plus the Monthly Finals in the PKR Shop.
