Satellites for the European Poker Championship in Velden, Austria Begin Tomorrow at Intertops Poker & Juicy Stakes
The winner of an online satellite tournament beginning tomorrow at Intertops Poker and Juicy Stakes Poker will compete in the prestigious European Poker Championship in Velden, Austria this summer. The three-tier tournament series begins with Step 1 tourneys with just a $3 buy-in. Players can win their way from there to the Final on April 23rd.
“I wish I could say I took home the title in Velden, but the experience itself was a win for sure,” recalls O’Keefe who won his way to Austria . “We all made day two, which is always tough and a plus for any poker player. The big buy-in and long structure always bring around the better players, so just making it that far was quite an accomplishment. I was a bit jealous the others hit the beach without me!”
