TonyBet Poker, the world’s biggest online OFC Poker site, is going to host the first live Open Face Chinese Poker World Championship this December, which will become a part of the Prague Poker Festival.

The event with two pineapple tournaments, the €1,000 buy-in Main Event and the €10,000 buy-in High Roller, will take place this Dec. 8-10 at the King’s Casino at Corinthia Hotel in Prague and is expected to be the biggest OFC Event so far.

“Open Face Chinese poker is a fun and exciting game, growing incredibly fast. Being the biggest global OFC poker site, we decided to seize an opportunity and give some live action for the players. And with the entire poker community coming to Prague in December, there’s just no better time and place to hold it. We are set to run the biggest live OFC event in history”, the site representatives said.

Tonybetpoker.com has already started running online satellites giving away seats to the OFC World Championship €1,000 ME. Online qualifiers start from as low as €10, while the site will also run freerolls, leaderboards and other promotions with guaranteed seats to the live event.

“We have decided to run an ambitious €10K High Roller event as per request from our top regulars. We’re expecting this tournament to draw a lot of big names from the poker community. It should become the Open Face Chinese Poker catwalk both in terms of player names and the quality of the game”.

The OFC Pineapple World Championship will also celebrate Tonybetpoker.com’s one year birthday which, according to site representatives, brings even more excitement to the event.

“That’s true, the championship will celebrate the incredible one year that we had at Tonybet Poker, and we will make sure there’s plenty of action for our players. The event will also feature OFC cash games, as well as loads of presents and nice surprises for the players”.
