Devilfish Night at the Voodoo Club

You have to hand it to the Devilfish, he is rarely out of the poker press this year. This time it is with the news that he will be hosting a regular tournament at the new Voodoo Card Club in Dublin. Devilfish Night takes place tonight and every Thursday at 8.30pm is a €25+€5 with one rebuy tournament. As a special introductory offer, the €5 registration will be waived throughout August. The winner of the weekly tournament will also receive a limited edition Devilfish chip set (while stock lasts, so hurry, they are almost as in demand as the new iPhone).

The man himself commented, "I love Dublin and made my name as a live poker player so I'm excited by the prospect of having somewhere to play next time I'm in Dublin. This is the first step in bringing the Devilfish experience to live players at an affordable price and I look forward to helping develop the night into something special."

GUKPT Luton Main Event is Underway
The cards are in the air and what is usually one of the biggest legs of the tour, the GUKPT Luton Main Event is underway. Luton is a real hub of UK poker, and being very easy to travel to and its close proximity to London, a lot of big UK names are expected to appear. All the HitSquad members are amongst the favourites with BlueSquare at 66/1, as is Chris Moorman, Roland De Wolfe and last years champion Sam Trickett. Check back here for the day 1a chip counts tomorrow.
