Fantasy Poker Update: 30/06/08

By Lucy Kavanagh

An unexpected shift in points gives us a new fantasy league leader... will they win the WSOPE side event seat?

A message from our sponsor:

£1,000,000. A WSOP Europe bracelet. EXCLUSIVE online qualification at Betfair.

In 2007 Annette Obrestad took the title, the bracelet and a cheque for £1,000,000. Betfair Poker is the ONE and ONLY place you can qualify for WSOP Europe 2008 and qualification is live right now.

This year Betfair Poker is setting aside $1.5 MILLION to send a team to WSOP Europe in September 2008. Make sure you are part of the excitement!

STOP PRESS: Betfair are delighted to confirm the dates for this years’ World Series of Poker Europe. The extended event will start in London on 19th September and run until 1st October.

NEXT WSOP EUROPE QUALIFIER:

When: 6th July at 18:00 (BST)
Buy-in: $525 $25
Prize: 1st and 2nd each win a $24,000 WSOPE package*.

*Should the prize pool exceed its guaranteed amount but does not cover the cost for an additional package all funds go to the runner up.

Upcoming WSOPE Qualifier Dates:

6th July, 20th July, 3rd August, 7th and 14th September

Top Ten After Event #48:

1. weirdrash - 160
2. Paul 'lionel hutz' Spillane - 148
3. Greg 'marshall_gj' Marshall - 147
4. John 'RampantLion' Grout - 136
5. ryanaw - 134
6. cagey75 - 133
7. Kevin 'CanadaKav' Malarek - 127
8. James 'lendus' Morris - 126
9. Myles 'mylesfdo' Phago - 117
10. Juan 'yeyocol' Medina - 114

weirdrash jumps straight to number one after a very successful weekend. Several players still pose a real challenge however and with 6 events still to be scored this will almost definitely come to a photo finish...

These people have THREE bracelet winners:

That's two people that are just two events away from the $10,000 prize. It could still be yours though, as the fantasy league is still open. Click here now to get your entries in free and go for a last minute winning spree!

Neil 'badbeat1' Channing storms into the lead whilst Simon 'billybrimstone' Hopper catches up dramatically to put himself up there with the leaders. Hugo 'lucky567' Martin and Javed 'minus00limit' Ghazi still hold their own and just like the main race the team PV leaderboard will now certainly come down to a very close finish!
