Edward Ihre MD of Ladbrokes Poker said: “As you know, we put a lot of emphasis on the importance of community and the LEOCOP (Ladbrokes European Online Championship of Poker) is like our annual family gathering. It’s the one time you can guarantee that everyone will make an appearance.”
“Its a chance to catch up with friends and acquaintances, learn from the old school and as Grazza (Graeme Newman) demonstrated in 2006 when he won the main event, sometimes its a rare opportunity to teach an old dog a trick or two and perhaps pick up the massive cheque at the end of it all! Of course the kudos and the massive prize pools are also very good reasons that players Europe-wide play this fantastic event!”
