Matthew Pitt
Sky Poker is the place you want to be in November if you want to take part in some value-packed online poker tournaments thanks to the 14th edition UK Online Poker Series (UKOPS) taking place there.
Running from November 1 through to November 15, 2015, UKOPS XIV promises more than £500,000 in guaranteed prize pools across a staggering 126 tournaments that have buy-ins starting as low as £3.30 and increasing to £530.
There are at least eight tournaments to choose from on each of the 15 days the UKOPS XIV runs. The first event on each day commences at 4:00pm with an £11 buy-in Bounty Hunter tournament, with the final tournament of each day starting at 10:00pm and being a £55 buy-in Turbo Bounty Hunter event.
Main Events take place at 8:00pm every night and feature rebuys, bounty hunters, Omaha events and standard freezeout, while on Sunday 8 November a £530 buy-in High Roller takes place that boasts of a £30,000 prize pool.
In addition to these higher buy-in events, Sky Poker is giving those who frequent the lower stakes the chance to play for big money via a quartet of Super UKOPS Bounty Hunters that have an £11 buy-in but a £25,000 guaranteed prize pool. These special tournaments can be played for free if you sign up to Sky Poker during October.
