PUB POKER: Crown to again host MAIN EVENT; dates confirmed for September

Media release

It’s back – even bigger and better than last time! Full House Group is thrilled to announce the next edition of The MAIN EVENT, to be held over five exciting days in the illustrious Crown Poker Room, Melbourne from September 5-9.

With a guaranteed prize pool of at least $100,000 for first place, and capped at 600 runners, we are once again expecting a great turnout. Open to APL, 888PL and Pub Poker players from all over Australia, The MAIN EVENT is a qualification only tournament, specifically designed to find out who is ‘the best of the best’.

The structure of the September MAIN EVENT will differ slightly from our first event, held in February, in which Illawarra’s Nathan Gauci captured a first prize package of $120,000.

Registration will begin on Wednesday, September 5 and the action will get underway from Thursday when Victorian players will be seated in flight one of The MAIN EVENT. On Friday flight two will feature all interstate players.

Saturday will be considered day two of The MAIN EVENT, and our Player’s Party will be held at Crown in the evening. Day Three will conclude the event on Sunday with the winner expected to be decided in the early evening. A full-schedule will be on offer over the five-day tournament, including even more side events for players and league members.

There are a number of ways our players can qualify for The MAIN EVENT. By winning any of the below events, players can qualify for this exciting tournament.

• State Champs
• NSW Pro Open
• Regional Final
• $10K Deepstack
• North QLD Champs
