LONDON, England -- (PRESS RELEASE) -- PKR.com and The Fox Poker Club have teamed up to present a new breed of poker festival that promises to bring 'poker to the people' by offering high quality,
dealer dealt tournaments at affordable buy-ins.
Running for a full 28 days between 11th October and 7th November 2010, the PKR.com 'London Calling' festival will consist of 57 tournaments with the majority of buy-ins ranging from £20 to £100. While No Limit
Hold'em will be well represented, there will also PLO, PLO8, Heads Up events and a two day HORSE event.
The festival will conclude with a £300

put on an event like this for some time, and we're delighted that London now has the perfect venue in which to do so. With regular buy-ins ranging from £20 'London Calling' is for the huge number of people who'd love to play a high-quality, dealer dealt tournament but find most poker tours and festivals are too high for their
bankroll."
