PartyPoker Gets Set For East Meets West

Online poker room PartyPoker has announced that qualifiers are under way for the inaugural PartyPoker European Challenge, which will take place in March in Vienna.

This year the first 50 online qualifiers from Eastern Europe will take on the first 50 online qualifiers from Western Europe in the PartyPoker East versus West Cup, a 100,000 Euro freeroll, as well as playing for the main package.

The East v. West Cup has recently been finalised. The East will be captained by Lithuania-born Tony G and the West by Englishman Dave 'The Devilfish' Ulliott. The action will be filmed for worldwide television distribution.

A Party Poker spokesman said: 'The 100,000 Euro prize pool for the East versus West Cup is a great bonus for qualifiers for the European Challenge. The final table of 10 will share 50,000 Euro while the winning team will get 50,000 Euro split between them so even if you go out first hand in the freeroll you stand to profit from successful team mates.'

The Party Poker European Challenge will be a highlight of the 13th annual Austrian Spring Poker Festival and will be held at the Concord Card Casino, one of Europe's premiere poker locations.

It takes place from 10th-17th March 2007, with an estimated prize pool of around $1.1 million.
