7/26/2018 0 Comments Great Things Are Achieved with A Great Team: The European Poker Series AmbassadorsThe first European Poker series (EPS) is coming to Spa and the EPS delegation will be on the move with a caravan of ambassadors that have been helping to promote the event all around Europe since early 2018.  
The World Cup is over and Belgium has almost reached the Football Main Event Final Table this year. So close ... just like we all do in MTTs :p
There are some World Cup champions though in Belgium :D View the WORLD CUP FESTIVAL Hall of Fame via the embeded Instagram posts below and find out about the complete schedule of the WaSOP coming up next week. I will be on the spot with updates and photos under pokernamurevent.be.

You just have to enjoy those summer minutes you get from time to time to the fullest extend. And the Belgians compensate with the warmth and sunshine from their heart. No? Still not convinced?
Poker! There's Poker. There will be a lot of Poker these weeks in the Wallonian capital! 7/17/2018 0 Comments EPS SPA: THE SCHEDULE !The European Poker Series (EPS) ambassadors are doing a great job promoting the Spa stop from 8th to 19th August on an international scale for two pleasant Poker weekends in the beautiful Belgian Ardennes. EPS, a genuine Poker festival !  The core idea of EPS is not just to offer a single main event with random side events around it over a few days but to establish a genuine festival atmosphere over 12 days of Poker day in day out with no less than 8 events and 15 satellites. Additionally, cash games will be open every day including 3 streamed VIP cash game sessions on the 12th, the 15th and the 19th August from 2pm.
The game will be an 8-max setup with minimum blinds of 10/20 in a NLH format (depending on agreements, players will be free to decide to add games or to raise the blinds over time). There’s is a list of interested participants so if you wish to get on it, we strongly encourage you to get in touch as soon as possible. 7/16/2018 0 Comments €3.600 in guaranteed prizes for the European Poker Series Spa at casa Poker Belgique this Wednesday Poker Belgique is hosting a SUPER Satellite for an EPS SPA package at the Grand Casino de Namur this Wednesday, 18th July from 7pm.
6 packages of 600€ will be guaranteed no matter what. 
It's chill time! Greetings from Portugal where I'm off for two weeks enjoying the heat, playing cards and meeting friends. My brother is coming over with a buddy later this month to spice it all up with some Golf and Surf sessions. Life is beautiful. Repeat three times every morning ;)
Below, you will find a bunch of info about what is going on these weeks at Casino Estoril Poker room followed by a detailed preview of my almost 100% Belgian August 2018: WaSOP Namur, European Poker Series Spa & Holiday Festival Namur with a few days of Portugal in between if I can make it. My Flickr photo archive is up to date with my latest albums of the Namur World Cup Festival and of the Spanish Poker Festival at King's Casino Rozvadov last week. Enjoy! 
I have survived another week at King's Casino Rozvadov where I was attending the SPF Summer 2018. After one bullet in Cup, two bullets in the Main Event and a couple of cash game sessions, I am more or less satisfied with booing an even week mainly due to my 36th/688 place finish in the Main Event. The glory will be for later ... :) At least, I made it deeper in the payout structure than Jordan 'Never Lucky' Verbraeken which is already an achievement as such :p
Again, I did not manage to #punishthespanish like they deserve it but Portuguese buddies have been running good with Paulinho finishing second of the Ultra KO and Pestana shipping the Saturday 20k tournament last night. Vamos!!   A bunch of hotel & buy-in packages are available for EPS Spa coming in quickly now. We are just a few weeks away from the beginning of the European Poker Series festival. Waste no time and secure your room at Radisson Blu Palace in front of the casino, just across the road.
 The information has spread on the Internet since early 2018: a new international Poker festival is on its way to the Belgian town of Spa. The promoters’ goal is to establish a festival gathering players from all around Europe for a great international Poker meeting in Belgium. Schedules and hotel offers have been carefully prepared in order to give players great playing conditions in pleasant surroundings. Tournament buy-ins and structure variations will allow everybody to find a suitable for their bankroll and agenda.  Live qualifiers will be available in the Spa and Namur casinos over the coming weeks to give everybody access to guaranteed prize pools for a low investment.
This first edition of the EPS Festival will take place in the oldest casino in the world, the Casino de Spa in the city of Spa, an area already well-known for its picturesque forest landscapes, its wellness centres and the nearby Spa-Francorchamps race track. Cash Game Weekend Batumi has been announced recently just after our stop in Riga a few weeks ago. You can find all CGW Riga pictures in a summary post with almost 350 shots in this link and we are now happy to promote our next festival. This time, we are back to the shores of the Black Sea in Georgia's Batumi with a festival from 25th to 30th of July. Cash players get their room for free as usual and the standard games will range from $5/5 to $10/20 in NLH or PLO formats. Higher blinds are always available on request. For info and booking, you can use the www.cashgametour.com website.  
There is some #pokernamur in the air for this week with the World Cup Festival starting tonight at the Namur Casino.
I will be making my way to Belgium this afternoon and I will stay on the spot to report about the events of the week featuring the return of www.pokernamurevent.be to get all the updates about the festival. Find out about more upcoming Poker trips in my last post in this blog. 
6/18/2018 0 Comments #allineverywhere July 2018 After a week in Riga in between days of Portuguese bliss, I will soon be off on a small tour again. Photos of my last Portugal stays and of the Riga Cash Game Weekend are available in the PHOTOS & COVERAGES section or in my Flickr archive.
Next stop: the #pokernamur World Cup Festival ! Back in Belgium next week for another edition of the monthly Namur Poker rendez-vous. Information can be found under www.circuspoker.be but it looks like I will be publishing my coverage again on www.pokernamurevent.be from this festival on. More news soon ... #pokernamur on Facebook HERE.  If you are the kind of Poker player who is into +EV moves, here is one that is pretty easy and requires almost no skill or studying :) Until June 30th, EPS Spa is offering Warm Up packages at a special rate.  - Warm Up buy-in (€199)
- 2 nights at Radisson Blu Palace from 10th to 12th or from 11th to 13th August >> €509 instead of €597 The standard package includes:

For those who care, almost 350 photos of our city trip to Riga are online HERE. 
6/6/2018 0 Comments Riga Cash Games: Photos
Yesterday, I made my way to Latvia from Lisbon and here we are now kicking off another cash game event in another great casino, the Royal Casino Poker Club in the heart of Riga.
Follow the daily photo galleries via the links provided in the PHOTOS & COVERAGES section of my site.
See you in Riga!! 
After almost a week in Belgium, I am off again but I did not leave without leaving souvenirs behind ;) You can find all #pokernamur information under www.circuspoker.be and you will find festival photos day by day in the PHOTOS & COVERAGES section of this website. Below, I prepared a gallery with all the festival's photos at once. Enjoy and see you on the road! More info on my trips in the #allineverywhere ON THE ROAD blog of this page.   The Spa Casino will be the host of one of my biggest Poker projects during this summer, the European Poker Series in the middle of August for 12 days of Poker surrounded by the pittoresque forests next to the Formula 1 race track in Spa-Francorchamps.   But before that, PokerStarsBE will make a stop in Spa with the Spring leg of the Belgian Poker Challenge. You can visit the Casino de Spa Facebook Poker page or their website for more info about this upcoming event. C'est reparti pour une semaine de #pokernamur pour le Sun Festival ... évidemment sans soleil. Ça reste la Wallonie :) Pour les mises à jour quotidienne, le service marketing du casino s'occupe de www.circuspoker.be. Pour ma part, ce sera comme dernièrement des mises à jour et du matériel audiovisuel sur la page Facebook Poker du casino. Pour les archives photo, ça se passe toujours sur Flickr et vous trouverez des mises à jour régulières sur la page Facebook The-Rounderdotnet ainsi que sur Instagram ou Twitter.   In the beginning of July, I will make a comeback in Rozvadov. As a matter of fact, I stopped working for King's in the end of 2017 and this was also the last time I went to Czech Republic to play the GPT Christmas edition. In July, I am going back for the traditional #punishthespanish beating :p If anyone wants to join, vamos! I will shooting pictures in Namur, Belgium for the #pokernamur World Cup Festival that will see its Main Event finish in the night 1st/2nd July and will probably be off to cross Europe during the same night. We'll sleep when we're dead. The 3* rooms are already sold out as far as I know but there are still plenty of accommodation options available.  For those who fly in through Nurnberg, SPF has set up a free shuttle service to King's at specific times. Check their offer HERE. All you need to know about SPF is online HERE. In case you are not convinced, maybe my set of 150 pictures from last year's edition can help :p   While my Instagram for sure begins to have a smell of grilled sardines and vegetables, it's time to leave Portugal for a bit of back and forward between Luxembourg, Namur, Cascais, Riga, Rozvadov and Spa over the next weeks. #allineverywhere  5/14/2018 0 Comments Du cash game a Riga Je pars à Riga début Juin <3 :)
Voilà une dizaine d'années que je n'y avais pas mis les pieds et, à l'époque, ce n'était pas pour du Poker, mais pour des bons vieux concerts de Punk et de Hardcore et des festivals de musique dans les forêts aux quatre coins du pays. Changement de décors donc, même si j'espère bien retrouver des amis d'antan dans certains des nombreux lieux culturels underground de la ville... Envie de passer un séjour Poker inoubliable? Alors que tout le monde se rue sur les destinations au bord de plages pendant les mois creux avant que les touristes ne débarquent, Cash Game Tour et Poker Trest proposent, une fois de plus de se retrouver dans un cadre excellent au sein d'une ville d'exception, un des bijoux des pays Baltes, Riga, la capitale Lettonne. Au menu, c'est simple et efficace: du cash game, du cash game et encore du cash game :) Mettant un point d'honneur sur la sélection des lieux de ses étapes, les Cash Game Weekends proposent des formules attrayantes vous permettant de profiter de la ville et de tous ses attraits culturels et touristiques sans les contraintes des horaires de tournoi. Que vous soyez plutôt du matin ou de la nuit, plutôt branché PLO ou NLH, vous jouez quand vous voulez et autant que vous voulez. Il y aura toujours une table pour vous accueillir.
Forget sea, sex & sun! We have Meuse, Poker & sun (maybe) in Namur!
The Poker festivals in Namur are again pretty popular this year with massive low buy-in fields generated in the early year, a great Namur Classic's and, again, more than 600 entries in the Spring Festival's Main Event in late April/early May. 
During this May, the Poker action will not slow down with the return of the APAT.be with a Namur leg I will not attend. Their media team will take good care of the coverage of the event under www.apat.be and I will be back in Wallonia for the Sun Festival from 22nd to 27th of May.
What is more, I will also be back for the World Cup Festival and you will most probably see me around in late July/early August for the WaSOP ... 5/7/2018 0 Comments Silver Poker Series in Estoril In one month, the Golden Poker Series family will stop in Portugal again. After the European Poker Series Estoril a few weeks ago, the Spanish promoter is setting up a stop for its Silver Poker Series (SPS) on the Portuguese Atlantic coast. The festival will take place from 7th to 11th June with information to be found on: - the SPS Facebook page & website - the Casino Estoril Poker Facebook page - the Casino Estoril online calendar  |
ON THE ROADBefore the summer of 2017, the page was animated by 2 blogs: the Poker tournament blog and the general blog. Today, only the former tournament blog remains active featuring all sorts of updates in one place only. Easier for you, easier for us ... :)
