The Gala Casinos British Poker Tour (GCBPT) will hit the half-way mark, when it debuts in Liverpool from September 17 — 21. The main event will be a £500 + £50 no-limit hold’em freezeout, and with a capacity of 220 runners, the estimated prize pool of £110,000 will be further increased by £5,000 added by GalaPoker.co.uk.
First place is set to receive a £2,000 bonus package into the grand final main event in December, with two runners up guaranteed bonus seats into the Teesside main event.
