Live Event schedule 2010 unveiled

Live Events are an essential part of Ongame Network’s service to partners and 2010 sees first-time participation in April’s Irish Poker Open. Ongame Network can now unveil the calendar of supported events for early 2010 here.

Live Events are integrated into Ongame Network’s extensive online tournament offering. Prize packages and direct buy ins are available to network partners, who actively promote these events and associated online finals to their players. Partner feedback shows that online players are enthusiastic about the chance to play live poker in many exciting locations worldwide.

Aussie Millions, well attended by partners
The year kicks off with Aussie Millions from 24-31 January 2010 in Melbourne, Australia. Players from BestPoker, bwin, PAF, Scandic Bookmakers and Winamax will be at the live tables having qualified from network-wide online finals played from October to December 2009.

Irish Poker Open, first time attendance
For the first time Ongame Network is joining the Irish Poker Open in Dublin, Ireland from 2-5 April 2010. Interest is building as online finals start across the network on 11 February and buy ins are now available for partners.

Another route to Dublin is to win first prize in Ongame Network’s Winter SNG Decathlon tournament promotion, running 10-16 February, where a package of Irish Poker Open tickets, spending money and hotel accommodation is up for grabs.

Ongame Network’s dedicated Live Event and Tournament Management teams evaluate international live poker tours looking for events that add value to network players and partners. Players can often meet the Ongame Network team at these live events and we frequently blog live, following how network players are doing at the poker tables.
