The lucky Intertops and Juicy Stakes Poker satellite winners are heading to Austria to play in the CAPT Seefeld Poker tournament, which is scheduled to begin on February 26th. The participants will be accommodated in a highly-rated ski resort.
One of the winners, Chris Perkins, has already voiced his excitement, stating, “I can't stop thinking about the tournament in Austria!”
Perkins further added, “For the past few days I have been feeling like I am going to do really well. The structure of this event is by far the best live tournament structure I have played with 50,000 starting stack and 60 minute blind levels. This structure favors my style so much. I really think this is going to be the tournament that is going to allow me more freedom with poker. I don't know why I am getting that feeling, but this just seems like my time.”
Online satellite tournaments will continue at the two leading online poker rooms, in an effort to send a total of 5 players to the annual TKPT tournament, scheduled for April, in the beautiful St Maarten. The final day for satellite tournaments will be March 6th.
Each day, step 1 tournaments in the three-tier series are held at six different times: 11am, 2pm, 4pm, 6pm, 8pm, and 10pm EST. Each features a buy-in of $2 + $20. Those who do well will move on to the Finals, which take place every Sunday at 9pm, and award a $3000 prize package.
With the CAPT Seefeld Poker tournament beginning this week, Austrian Poker pro, Daniel Montagnolli, states, “I'm really looking forward to welcoming the team to my home turf! I love this area and I know they will too! CAPT Seefeld is one of the best stops on the Casinos Austria poker tour. There will be players from all over – lots of professionals but lots of recreational players as well.”
