Sky Poker UKOPS XVII

Sky Poker��s popular online festival, the UK Online Poker Series, returns Oct. 28 for a 43-event spectacular where more than ��350,000 is guaranteed will be won over the course of 10 days.

Now in its 17th edition, the Sky Poker UKOPS promises players a variety of tournament formats including freezeouts, re-buys, deepstacks, and bounty hunters. Buy-ins start at only ��22 and increase up to ��530, that princely sum being reserved for the ��30,000 guaranteed High Roller at 7:30 p.m. UK time on Oct. 30.

There are at least four UKOPS events taking place every day from Oct. 28 through Nov. 6, with one of those daily tournaments being a ��110 buy in Main Event in line with that day��s other tournaments.

Winners of each UKOPS event not only win the cash prize assigned to first place, but they also receive a special commemorative UKOPS bracelet.
