5/10/2019 0 Comments Next P.R.O.S. FestivalAfter 6 months of promotion for the launch of the Poker Room Of Spa, it's already time to step back and to move on to other destinations. This does not mean that I will not be around at all anymore but I am definitely planning to spend less time in Belgium again over the coming months. That does not make the cash game tables less juicy in Spa though :D So I am for sure planning to come back from time to time like for instance for their upcoming bounty hunt for next weekend from the 16th to the 19th May. The event is a €250 buy-in tournament played in two days with three Day 1s. The starting stack will be 50k in 30/40-minute levels. View the complete structure HERE.

The B.P.A. 2019 ceremony is coming up this weekend in Spa with a prestigious €1.100 event but there are ways around the cashier. As a matter of fact, from tomorrow, Thursday 11th of April, daily Phase 1 events will be available for €120. 10% of the field will advance to the Super Star Championship on Saturday but it is not a proper satellite. The twist is that you will keep your stack for the weekend tournament no matter how high or low it is. That way, you might end up being short stacked or maybe start with more players than your opponents on Saturday but always for a reduced price of €120 instead of €1.100. Find all details on the P.R.O.S. page!  4/10/2019 0 Comments #allineverywhere in April

I still did not get the chance to fly home to Portugal over this early February. After the P.R.O.S. Benelux Championship, I decided to skip Dublin for personal and business reasons but only to stick to the Luxembourg and Spa area where I have been staying since my return from my 2-week Rozvadov stay for the Dutch Classic's and the Spanish Poker Festival.
This weekend, I will be back at the Poker Room Of Spa for the APAT Benelux Championship before finally finding my way back to the Portuguese Atlantic coast for late February and early March :) 
2/15/2019 0 Comments La Belgique, l'autre pays du PLOEn décembre dernier, Tony G fêtait son anniversaire au King's Casino de Rozvadov par un grand tournoi de Pot Limit Omaha organisé par Frank Koopmann connu depuis longtemps sur les lieux. Amateur de belles parties de cartes et surtout de PLO, Frank remet ça ce début avril 2018 avec une double attaque à 4 cartes dans le Big Wrap avec son Warm Up à €200.000 et son Main Event à €1.000.000 garantis!!   I will be back in Spa from tonight with a photo and cash game plan but I don't think I will get away these days without registering at least one tournament :)
The one-day tournament weekend starts tonight with the Thursday Night Fever (€1.500 GTD) as a warm up before the big action kicks off from tomorrow. Du 1 au 8 avril 2019, c'est un rendez-vous incontournable qui se profile à l'horizon pour tous les amoureux de Pot Limit Omaha au King's Resort Rozvadov. En effet, Frank Koopmann récidive après son tournoi de décembre à l'occasion du tournoi d'anniversaire de Tony G pour un buy-in de €1.100 et une garantie de €200.000 et remporté par Brian Cornell pour presque €42.000. Immédiatement après le Festival WSOP Circuit, ce seront deux événements PLO du Big Wrap qui se succèderont avec des satellites pendant toute la semaine. >> Le WARM UP avec €200.000 Garantis |
