888poker LIVE’s new UK Poker League starts this week

By Mad Harper
Live Events News

There is already a huge buzz regarding the launch this week of 888poker LIVE’s new UK Poker League in Coventry. The £560 Main Event starts on Thursday with a bunch of other exciting side events on the schedule as well.

The UKPL is a series of live festivals that are taking place in various Grosvenor Casinos across the country. It’s the first time that 888poker LIVE has run a poker league in the UK. The new tour will have its own UKPL leaderboard and all points accumulated will also count towards Grosvenor’s acclaimed National Poker League.

In addition to the £560 Main Event, other tournaments on the UKPL’s debut event in Coventry include the £250 Opening Voyage with three starting flights, a £1,100 High Roller, the £400 Big Shot, £150 Seniors event and £200 Closer.

All Main Events will cost £560 to enter. In addition to the forthcoming Coventry festival, the new tour will also be heading to Edinburgh in February, Luton in March, Manchester in April, Leeds in August and London in September. The Grand Final will be held next October in Coventry.

MainEventTravel.com is the Official Travel Partner for Grosvenor and has a wide selection of hotels available in Coventry. Bag your room now to take advantage of lower rates – and make sure you get to stay exactly where you want.

Hotel Recommendations

Britannia Coventry: Even though the Britannia Coventry is a city centre hotel, it’s still only a 12-15 minute’ drive to the UKPL venue at the CBS Arena. Located in the heart of Coventry overlooking the cathedral, the Britannia is a great option if you’re after a more budget option. 

 

DoubleTree by Hilton Coventry: The DoubleTree by Hilton Coventry is a stylish option for your UKPL trip. Located just off the M6, it’s only five miles/12 minutes’ drive from the venue and boasts a ton of amenities including free access to the fabulous LivingWell spa with 15m indoor pool, jacuzzi, sauna, steam room and gym.

 

Days Inn By Wyndham Corley: this conveniently placed property is close to the M6 and just ten minutes’ drive from the UKPL venue. The hotel offers ample free parking, 24-hour reception, free WiFi, and an adjacent Starbucks. Each of the comfortable non-smoking rooms offers a flat-screen TV, ensuite bathroom and tea- and coffee-making facilities.

888poker’s Live Events Group Manager Matan Krakow said: “We’ve been working with Grosvenor for the past few years and it’s been an extraordinary partnership. They’re a major actor in the UK’s live poker scene. The live events we’ve done with them in the past have been very successful. Poker is very much part of the fabric of UK culture. We’re excited to be launching this new tour.”
