Members of the Living the Dream team, all online satellite winners from Intertops Poker and Juicy Stakes Poker, are on their way to Austria to compete in the CAPT Seefeld poker tournament next week. Daily video reports from the world class ski resort near Innsbruck begin on Wednesday on the Living the Dream poker blog and right here on Gambling Daily.
Meanwhile, online satellite tournaments where five online players will win their way to the Caribbean for the TKPT tournament in St Maarten in April, continue until March 6th. Step 1 tournaments in the three-tier series (buy in $2 + $.20) are held every day at 11am, 2pm, 4pm, 6pm, 8pm and 10pm EST. From there, players can win their way to Finals held every Sunday at 9 pm EST, where $3000 prize packages are awarded to the winners, or buy-in to those events for $100 + $10.
“I can’t stop thinking about the tournament in Austria!” said Chris Perkins, one of the online winners joining the team in Seefeld.
“For the past few days I have been feeling like I am going to do really well,” Chris said on the Living the Dream poker blog today. “The structure of this event is by far the best live tournament structure I have played with 50,000 starting stack and 60 minute blind levels. This structure favors my style so much. I really think this is going to be the tournament that is going to allow me more freedom with poker. I don’t know why I am getting that feeling, but this just seems like my time.”
“I’m really looking forward to welcoming the team to my home turf!” said Daniel Montagnolli, an Austrian poker pro who was with the team in Punta Cana last fall and who will also be with them in Seefeld. “I love this area and I know they will too! CAPT Seefeld is one of the best stops on the Casinos Austria poker tour. There will be players from all over — lots of professionals but lots of recreational players as well.”
Intertops Poker and Juicy Stakes Poker are the leading online poker rooms on the Horizon Poker Network.
