Looking for darkened cardrooms rather than sunny beaches? Poker Travel has the answer…
There’s only one thing better than going on holiday and that’s going away with a load of mates to play poker.
So you’ll be pleased to hear that a new company, www.poker.travel, has been set up especially with this in mind. Rather than you wasting valuable time searching the internet for fl ights, Poker Travel’s owner Beverley Pace (wife of comedian and poker player Norman Pace) will sort out the details of the trip so you can focus on your poker instead.
‘We know what we’re doing because we’re poker players ourselves. We’re working with everyone from the professionals who are going to the World Series to play every event, to players like me, who have never been to Vegas before,’ said Pace, whom you shouldn’t think of as just another ‘celebrity’ fish.
She’s already qualified for the Main Event and will be running Poker Travel hands-on from Vegas while she’s over there.
If you’ve qualified for the Big One Poker Travel has a selection of deals on the books, from luxury villas – if you want a home away from home – to top-end hotels like the Bellagio.
Other deals include trips to Tallinn, Estonia in September (prices starting from £391 sharing twin) and Dublin at the end of June (prices from £399).
All prices include flights, accommodation, poker tuition and your own tournament complete with prizes. Check out www.poker.travel for up-to-date details on all holidays.
