Big news today?

Postby AceLosesKing » Fri May 15, 2009 11:41 am

So there's supposed to be a lot of news about NPL dropping today. Told by Matty we have to wait until Friday to hear it. Thing is, we're not going to NPL tonight so we won't hear the speech. And I'm bored.

So can someone spill the beans here? :D

Yeah, I think Timmy posted last Friday, saying he had to bite his tongue for 7 more days.

The floor is yours, Mr Harry. :D

Nice one Marc.

So come on, what's going on NPL dudes? I keep hearing a lot of rumours about new stuctures, and these $50 deepstack tickets are supposedly going to be worth a LOT more then everyone first anticipated... IT ALL SOUNDED SO COOL WHEN I HEARD ABOUT IT I CANT TAKE THE SUSPENSE ANY LONGER SOMEONE TELL MEEEEE

Here is the teaser.

Please excuse Sean's previous posts, they were slightly incorrect.

FULL HOUSE GROUP PRESS RELEASE

Full House Group, the home of Sportspick and the National Poker League in the southern states, is proud to announce the launch of the 888Poker League.

The 888PL is Australia’s first fully integrated online and in venue poker competition where players can earn equal points playing in online and live tournaments.

Along with our partners 888 Holdings, Full House Group is excited by the changes to our poker league, as we feel that this will reinvigorate the pub poker market, bring new players to our competition and provide fantastic opportunities for players to win more prizes and seats into important domestic and international poker tournaments.
Over 10 years in the entertainment industry, Full House Group (formerly Sportspick and Poker Promotions), has led the way with innovation and a commitment to keeping our products interesting for players and successful for our venue clients.

Over the last 3 years running thousands of live poker games we have come to realise that the poker market has changed and matured and players are looking for more prizes and more challenges. This has led us to partner with major UK based company 888 Holdings who offer a fantastic online poker site, www.888.com.

888 Holdings is listed on the UK Number 1 Stock Exchange and with revenue of over $USD12Billion, is one of the largest players in the online space. The deal with Full House Group is one of the first of its kind in Australia.

The 888PL, will not only deliver an exciting competition structure with an expected $100k Grand Final every season, it will also bring to life the other passion of Australian’s�port. The motto of our league is POKER. SPORT. LIFE. and we intend to finally and definitively answer the question whether poker is sport with a resounding – YE�
Our live poker staff will be known as Tournament Captains and Vice-Captains, players will play in a Foundation (Free) and a Challenge (Buy In) Division in Home (Online) and Away (In Venue) Games. They will participate in Qualifying and Semi-finals which culminate in a Grand Final and our Dream Team Leaderboard Winner will win the Gold Chip Medal.

This revolution in our competition kicks off on May 25th and details about our fixture will be available on www.888pl.com.au.
