Online Poker Room Adds Money to Big Events

Online poker series have become popular over the years, giving players a chance to participate in a World Series of Poker style festival without having to travel to Las Vegas, or in fact leave their home at all. One such series is LEOCOP, the Ladbrokes European Online Championship of Poker, and the fourth installment of LEOCOP is just around the corner, and as much as $250k has been added to the prize pools. The 15-event poker series will sport games in all the popular styles, from No Limit Texas Holdem to Pot Limit Omaha, and players can buy in directly or qualify for seats for as little as $1 at Ladbrokes Poker.
