Paf Poker Challenge
Poker is one of the most popular forms of gambling and gaming all around the world, with millions of people playing each and every year. There will be those that play the odd hand with their friends on weekends, or people that like to play in the comfort of their own home for big money online every day or week - and there will also be individuals that yearn to be involved in the high stakes of a poker tournament in a casino. Luckily players on Paf can do the latter two pretty easily, as there is a chance to take a part in the tenth Paf Poker Challenge next summer.
It will provide a unique mixture of gaming, friendship and high quality poker over a four-day tournament that will really set pulses racing. Taking place from June 5th to 8th, it is the largest poker competition that Paf arranges and sees players come back year after year to experience the unique atmosphere. It is no surprise why, as the main tournament has a guaranteed prize pot of at least 100,000 euros. Last year Simon Johansson beat off the challenge of 200 other players to win and took home a cool 36,600 euros for his troubles.
As well as the main competition there are a large number of side tournaments, cash games and entertainment to keep people occupied throughout. All under one roof, the tournament will take place at Hotel Arkipelag slap bang in the middle of Mariehamn on Aland. Overlooking the sea, the hotel is a beautiful spot to play a bit of poker. You can qualify for the poker challenge in online qualifiers. You can progress from freerolls to 320-euro tickets in four stages, and the finals for the qualifiers will be held every Wednesday and Sunday at 20:00 CET. If you manage to gain qualification for the tournament you will win 1,500 euros, buy-in to the main tournament, three nights’ accommodation in a double room for you and a friend, 100 euros in travel money and a Paf welcome package, so don’t miss out and start playing poker now!
