Paddy Power Offers More Bets on Barcelona EPT Poker Event

Paddy Power has added two markets to its offerings for the European Poker Tour’s first outing of the 2006/07 season in Barcelona.

The Irish bookie has introduced “outright betting” and “to make final table” markets for the Barcelona event, which takes place in Casino Barcelona from September 13 to 16. Owing to the popularity of last year’s event which quickly sold out, the capacity has been raised to 480 for this year’s date.

“If Gaudi were still around he’d build a monument to poker!” said Paddy Power, head of communications for the bookmakers. “This is one of the coolest tournaments on the circuit, the one everyone wants to play and punters can keep their hand in by having a flutter on who’ll be the king of the felt in this beautiful city.”

Paddy Power is the first company to offer betting on this year's event and is pricing up markets for each stop of the European Poker Tour which includes stopovers in London, Dublin, Copenhagen, Baden, Deauville and Monte Carlo.
