Online Poker Tournament was a Success

Online Casino tournaments often include players that have developed quite a reputation in the world of poker. The winner of the Ladbrokes European Online Championship of Poker (LEOCOP) that is only identified by his avatar which he uses at online casinos everywhere is “Hahila”. The lucky winner took home a very nice six figure paycheck of $229, 500, which is not too shabby for a couple days worth of work. The event is a first for the online gambling website, they had over 600 entrants and they had the highest prize pool in the history of their tournament.

This online casino poker event was filled with decorated World Series of Poker bracelet winners and many other distinguished WSOP competitors. The Danish players were the ones that came out on top. In online casinos it is easy to hide behind the magic of the screen but it is quite another thing to be able to maintain composure when you are playing poker face to face and are trying to hide the excitement of a very good hand. The way that Ladbroke runs their tournament if they have tournament play until they can determine the top 80 players. The players that finished out on the top 80 were invited to continue on with their tournament play on the 22nd of November.

The players that remained in the online casino poker tournament were then in the semi-finals and were guaranteed at least a $20,000 payout. There were so many different players at the tournament from so many different walks of life. There was even a 22-year-old player that was showing the old professionals at the table a thing or two about playing poker. This online poker tournament is not the only one hosted by online casinos. There is an upcoming poker tournament called the Full Tilt Online Poker Series that will surely keep us entertained.
