As the official sponsor of the English Poker Open PokerKings is hosting satellite tournaments into the 2010 EPO Main Event. On the line is $1 million guaranteed in this special NL Hold'em Freezeout tournament.
PokerKings satellite tournaments into the 2010 English Poker Open start on Monday, July 5.

The PokerKings prize package into the 2010 English Poker Open gives the winners not only the $5,350 buy-in for the main event, but also around €1,500 to put toward travel expenses (the "around" is because exchange rates fluctuate).
