9/26/2018 0 Comments Troia, Estoril, Dublin, Namur ... September Journeys & Winamax Poker Open Photos> THE-ROUNDERdotnet on Facebook > Damian LIB on Instagram / Twitter After a busy August, I somehow hoped I'd have an easier September. Naaa ... The Troia Poker Festival was amazing! 0 tournaments played, daily cash game and beach sessions, top hotel and the peninsula is just amazing. I have posted a bunch of pictures on my Instagram and you will find more photos of the Arrabida coast on my Flickr.   Some run in circles, I fly in triangles. > THE-ROUNDERdotnet on Facebook > Damian LIB on Instagram / Twitter After a last stop in Belgium before late September (PokerStars MegaStack), I will be off to Portugal after a short stay in Luxembourg early next week. So soon, back to Estoril for cash game sessions of course but skipping the hiking and surfing schedule for the next weeks because of my injured ankle. As a result, guess what ... we're gonna play some more Poker :p and I will be off to Troia for my first visit there. I will be attending the Troia Poker Fest leaving the MTT glory to those who want it really bad and aiming for the daily cash game tables.  > THE-ROUNDERdotnet on Facebook > Damian LIB on Instagram / Twitter Lundi, 27 août 2018: le début officiel des travaux pour la transformation du Grand Casino de Namur avec la construction d'un nouvel hôtel. Les premiers camions de matériels sont arrivés aujourd'hui comme le relate la page Facebook 'Kursaal de Namur' où des photos des premières arrivées de camions ont été publiées ce matin. Autre événement de la semaine au casino en bord de Meuse au pied de la citadelle: le Holiday Festival, dernier événement Poker d'envergure des vacances d'été 2018 avant une petite trêve et un MegaStack Namur qui s'annonce hors norme fin septembre!

I am back to what is closest to what I can call a home these days: Estoril, Portugal. The plan was to go all-in on surf sessions and hiking/photo trips on the Atlantic coast before I wrecked my ankle on my first day out after 24 days of straight Poker action in Belgium for the WaSOP in Namur and the EPS Spa.
As a consequence, I am out of the surfing and hiking business until October or so and you will find part of my revenge plan below with the Big Estoril this weekend and the Spanish Poker Festival that will be in town in September.

The WPO will be back this fall with a ton action at and around the tables at Dublin's City West Hotel from 17th to 23rd September 2018 featuring a Main Event with 3 Day 1s. As the Winamax website is not accessible from everywhere, I have published the complete schedule as print screens below.
We are a few days away from the kickoff of the European Poker Series in the heart of the Belgian Ardennes in Spa and things are slowly getting into good shape to welcome the first visitors from this Wednesday, 8th August.  8/3/2018 0 Comments EPS CASH GAME NIGHTS EPS Spa is getting closer and closer and we are getting more and more excited! Today, we are happy to announce that we will be hosting 3 VIP cash game sessions with a streaming at the Casino de Spa. The dates are the 12th, the 15th and the 19th August and the games will be on from 2pm after a drink offered from 1pm.  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.
