Monthly Million at Paddy Power

A million dollar guaranteed tournament used to be a special occasion, now they are becoming commonplace, so there is no surprise that Paddy Power Poker have thrown their hat into the ring. On Sunday September 13th at 7pm, Paddy Power Poker will host their first regular Monthly Million - a $500+$35 event with a 10,000 stack and a 20 minute clock. You can win your seat from as little as $1 every day in satellites, many of which guarantee multiple seats. There are also STT satellites starting next month.

"The Monthly Million is the biggest monthly tournament we've ever offered our players and their interest in the daily satellites has exceeded our initial expectations", said Paddy Power, Communications Manager for Paddy Power Poker. "We're not as shocked as we might be though – a guaranteed prizepool of $1,000,000 is enough to attract every kind of poker player out there. The September Monthly Million is going to be MASSIVE!"

International Poker School

The Village Hotel in Hertfordshire will be the venue for the first International Poker School on September 12th. The UK based enterprise from Paul Zimbler will see some of the top names in the UK taking poker lectures round the UK as well as hosting a regular tournament with major land based tournament seats on offer. Paul Jackson, Julian Thew, Marc Goodwin and Liv Boeree have all been confirmed for the first one. Neil Channing, Praz Bansi, John Tabatabai and Michael Greco are all amongst the names linked with future events.

The event includes Q&A sessions, Single Table Tournaments with the pros and a shootout tournament at the end of the day with seats to a WSOPE side event on the table. The event costs £325 and is capped at 50 players.
