Ten Days Left and Still Over $400,000 in Added Money to Give Away in Ladbrokes Online Poker Festival

Ladbrokes online poker festival has run six of its 16 events and there is still well over $400,000 in Added money to give away. Satellites to all events are still running on Ladbrokespoker.com. There is a lot to play for cash, prestige and a once in a lifetime opportunity to super satellite into the Ladbrokes Poker Million semi finals and a potential $1m payday

London (PRWEB) October 31, 2008 -- Ladbrokes Pokers' (http://poker.ladbrokes.com/en/festivals/leocop/schedule) sixth LEOCOP IV event 'The Second Chance Plus' saw two hundred and twenty nine players vie for a prize-pool of $86,700. 'Sophiexxx' from London emerged the victor after eight hours and twenty minutes of play, winning $23,842.50 when her full house 5s over Qs annihilated 'Ow-Zone'. 'Ow-Zone' from Sheffield, who qualified for the event via a coin flip satellite was more than compensated for his second place efforts and banks $15,172.50.

'Inorissss' from Sweden narrowly missed out on Heads-Up play. He was hoping that after his two LEOCOP IV (http://poker.ladbrokes.com/en/festivals/leocop/schedule) cashes, three times a charm would apply and he'd secure a win in the Second Chance Plus, but instead he notched up some well deserved points on the LEOCOP Leaderboard and $9,970.50 cash instead.

So far, the LEOCOP IV (http://poker.ladbrokes.com/en/festivals/leocop/schedule) has seen Ladbrokes Poker (http://poker.ladbrokes.com/en) give away over $50,000 in added money. The popular online poker festival (http://poker.ladbrokes.com/en/newslist), will run for ten more days and see the remaining $450,000 in Added money handed out.

Edward Ihre MD of Ladbrokes Poker (http://poker.ladbrokes.com/en/newslist) commented: "Our online poker festival (http://poker.ladbrokes.com/en/newslist) is easily one of the best value, not only is there on average $10,000 added to each of the events, but also on the table is the chance to play in Poker Million VII, one of the richest and prestigious televised poker tournaments in the world with a first prize of $1,000,000"

He continued we have some great events over the weekend the Fixed Limit begins tonight, Omaha Hi/Lo Championship is on Saturday followed by the Sunday Deepstack. There truly hasn't been a better time for players to visit Ladbrokes Poker and try their hand!"

The festival will culminate with the LEOCOP Main Event $1000 + $100 Buy-In, which has a massive $250,000 added. For those who think the Buy-In is a tad steep visit Ladbrokepoker.com where there are daily opportunities for players to satellite in for considerably lower stakes.
