Coral Signs Deal With Late Night Poker

Coral.co.uk is the new official sponsor of Late Night Poker for 2011. The show returns to Channel 4 later this year for its tenth season and will see 32 players take part in the $10,000 buy-in event, creating a $320,000 prize pool including the first-place prize of $150,000.

There will be four tables of eight and the top two from each will move forward to the final. Late Night Poker usually displays some of the biggest names in poker and this year is no different with Vanessa Selbst, Dave Ulliott, Sam Trickett, Neil Channing, and David Vamplew among those confirmed.

Of the 32 taking part, will be four online qualifiers, and Coral.co.uk players can win entry for as little as $1. Three of the seats will be won in a $31,500 guaranteed final on Aug. 16 and the fourth seat will be given to the winner of the leader board which began on Jul. 25 and ends on Aug. 15.

John Jordan, Commercial Director for the site, said, “This sponsorship is perfect due to the collaboration of two great UK brands in Coral and Late Night Poker. We strongly believe that this will send out a clear message that Coral are serious not only about poker, but more importantly about UK Poker."
