PokerStars London Super Series Kicks Off Today

The ‘PokerStars London Super Series‘, which begins today at a temporary venue at Pennine Place, Charing Cross, London, will be played till November 18, giving poker players the opportunity to win one of three Platinum Passes worth $30,000.

Players who would like to participate should register at PokerStars Live’s UK home, The Hippodrome Casino.

The tournament schedule includes three events, the champions of which will receive a first-place cash prize plus a $30,000 Platinum Pass each. Holders of the Platinum Pass can use it to participate in the PokerStars Players Championship (PSPC), which will be played in January 2019 in the Bahamas.

The PSPC is being billed as the greatest poker event in the history of the game and PokerStars has been heavily promoting this inaugural event for over a year. PokerStars has given away hundreds of Platinum Passes and UK players will now get another opportunity to get their hands on a coveted pass.

These $30k Platinum Pass are very popular as they include the buy-in to the PSPC which is worth $25,000, a six-night stay at Atlantis Resort Nassau, $2k for travel expenses and surprise rewards that have not yet been announced.
