Rogue Trader Banks on Taking Down CelebPoker.com € 1 Million Guaranteed Poker Tournament on December 14th
Leeson is back -- and this time he's determined to take down the €1000+50 CelebPoker € 1Million Guaranteed, which runs on 14th December 2008. Nick delivers lectures to financial institutions, banks and businesses around the world. He also addresses universities and has spoken at the Oxford Union.
London (PRWEB) November 26, 2008 -- In 2006 Nick Leeson was appointed CEO of Ireland's Galway United FC - but most people will be familiar with Leeson not due to football, but rather in relation to the Barings Bank Collapse of 1995. Lesson's role in the collapse of Barings Bank (personal bank to The Queen) is one of the most spectacular and memorable catastrophes in modern financial history. How could one trader bring down the banking empire that had funded the Napoleonic Wars? Whatever happened to that rogue trader?
Nick Leeson is back - and this time he's determined to take down the €1000+50 CelebPoker € 1Million Guaranteed, which runs on 14th December 2008. Undoubtedly Leeson will be using all of the stress-management lessons he has learned in the past during the CelebPoker.com €1Million Guaranteed. Having survived personal heartbreaks and having triumphed over cancer, Leeson is an inspiration to all and should prove to be a formidable opponent on the tables. He remains confident he can give the other players in the tournament a run for their money.
The CelebPoker.com €1 Million Guaranteed runs on the 14th December and will pay a minimum of €250K to the winner. With satellites running daily from €5.50 and only limited time to win a seat, before the holiday season. Winners of the daily satellites will win entry into the weekly Sunday €120 final at 18:30 GMT to compete for a €1,050 seat in the €1,000,000 Guaranteed Poker Tournament. Players can also qualify through our Sit & Go Satellites, with these satellites you can qualify directly to the weekly, or even directly into the final.
The €1 Million structure is delicious, with 30 minute levels and a large10k starting stack, and an overlay is expected (meaning there's a good chance a player seat could be worth a lot more than the buy-in). We can bank on the fact that Nick Leeson will be giving it a shot.
