Major Tourneys on Tap

Touring poker pros have a tough decision to make this week: London, Seoul, or Turks and Caicos.

The £5,200+£200 buy-in EPT London Main Event begins tomorrow, and the event is expected to reach the cap of 500 entrants. Last year's winner, Vicky Coren, beat a field of 400 players to take home the £500,000 first place prize. Live updates from London will be available at PokerNews.com.

On this side of the Atlantic, the WPT is hosting the $7,500+$200 buy-in Turks and Caicos Poker Classic at the Players' Club on the island of Providenciales. The event begins tomorrow and the final table is scheduled for Sunday. The tournament is one of few WPT events in which the minimum age requirement is 18.

The event, beginning on Sept. 28, features a $2,500 buy-in and the field is capped is 250. The final table will take place on Sunday, Sept. 30, and updates are available at PokerStarsBlog.com
