EPT London: First plane to Stockholm
And so the carnage begins. The Team PokerStars Pro William Thorson is the first faller from those we're following closely here. He was deeply involved in countless pots early on, getting to the flop and turn and missing them all, having to fold to sizeable bets from his opponents. Evenutally,...more
EPT London: Suarez swerves all-in to double up
It may be early but there's still room for 'drama' hands, like pocket aces calling a king-queen all-in. Making that death rattle noise that anyone would make holding the king-queen, Mr Saurez, the player whose tournament life was at stake, stood up ready for an honourable exit. He picked...more
EPT London: Table Tsar Kravchenko
PokerStars qualifier Nik Persaud is out. The details are sketchy but from what he told me it was a cavalier move. "At least I went out in style" he said. A different path for Alex Kravchenko. He may not play in a cavalier fashion but Kravchenko also cuts an...more
EPT London: Bullet-point bulletin - No2
As alternates still buzz around the building, including the likes of Erica Schoenberg and David Benyamine, both of whom are on the waiting list for a seat, the early chip leader seems to be the former EPT champion Mark Teltscher, who already seems to have doubled to 20,000 which probably...more

EPT London: Coren's second title plan takes minor dent
The first big pot of the day erupts, breaking the seal on the day. Well, not that big come to think of it. When the hand got to the river I counted six green chips in the pot. That made for a haul worth 150. It featured Team PokerStars...more
EPT London: About last night...
You might have heard that PokerStars held a little get together last night. You may even have been there. Either way the photographic evidence is here in all it's glory, telling the story of how the EPT was greeted on its way in to London... Team PokerStars Pros were...more
EPT London: London calling
The red buses and telephone boxes, the policemen in funny hats, the black cabs, the palace and Her Majesty peeking out through the curtains; Oxford Street, Parliament, the Thames, Marble Arch, palace guards in red tunics and bearskins, heavy traffic and bookmakers on every corner. They're all getting mentions...more
EPT London: Fitting welcome as tour rolls into town
By Howard Swains It could be Barcelona, it could be Monte Carlo. It could be Las Vegas, Copenhagen, Warsaw or Dortmund. It could be any country, any culture, any time zone in the world. But some things are constant, and we're grateful for them to keep our feet firmly...more
EPT London: The home leg
Of all the regular stopping points through five seasons of the European Poker Tour, only four have been visited during every renewal. There's the sun-kissed Costa Brava coast of Barcelona, where season five got underway earlier this month, and early next year, we'll be braving the Scandinavian madness and winter...more
