2nd Series of Online Satellite Tournaments Sending another Winner to €700,000 European Poker Championship

A new series of online poker tournaments that will send winners to the €700,00 European Poker Championships at CAPT Velden this summer is just beginning at Intertops Poker (http://poker.intertops.eu) and Juicy Stakes Pokers (http://www.juicystakes.eu), just as one group of previous online satellite tournament winners prepares to compete in the Caribbean.

Next week, five online poker players will compete in the Main Event at the $500,000 TKPT tournament in St Maarten. Their poker adventure will be chronicled on the Living the Dream poker blog (http://www.live-dream-poker.com) starting April 27^th.

This week, online satellites for the European Poker Championships, CAPT Velden begin.  The winner will travel to Austria’s ‘Monte Carlo of the Alps’ to play in the prestigious €700,000 CAPT Velden European Poker Championship this summer.  Their €4,500 ($5,000) prize package includes $500 in travel expenses, 5 nights accommodation plus €2500 + €200 buy-in to the Main Event at CAPT Velden. 

The winner will be joined in Austria by the winner of a CAPT Velden Online Satellite series held last month, Hungarian Gabor Kresco.

CAPT Velden, July 20 – 25, 2016, is one of the premiere events on the Casinos Austria Poker Tour and attracts professional and recreational players primarily from Austria, Germany and Italy.
