Sky Poker Roll Out Every Sunday Night

The "Sunday Roller" Offers a GBP 8,000 Winning Pool

LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM--(Marketwire -01/16/12)- Sky Poker adds excitement to Sunday evenings with their promotion entitled "Sunday Roller". The event is takes place every Sunday at 7pm; and offers those who like to play competitive poker online the opportunity to finish their weekend with a bang, and the chance to bag a GBP 8000 guaranteed pool. Updates on the progress of the game will also been shown live on Sky Poker's TV channel, 865.

The Sunday Roller offers flexibility for players of all abilities- The direct buy in for the event is GBP 220, however if customers feel this is too large an amount for their budget, they can gain entry via satellite competition from as low as GBP 5.20.

These tournaments to gain entry into the semi finals take place during the week, feeding into the semi finals, and 1 in 5 who participate in the micro satellites win a seat to the semi final- although this route is not as direct, for players confident in their own poker ability and not willing to pay the full amount for the buy in, it is a competitive alternate route, with a shot at the large winning pool.

Semi final satellites also take place at 9.30pm Saturday and 4.30pm on Sundays. The buy in for this event is slightly higher at GBP 24; however it gives players a shorter route and slightly higher chance of winning a seat in the final- 1 in 10 players who enter using this method win a final seat to the GBP 8k Sunday Roller Final.
