The 888Live London Poker Players Party has got underway in the Sky Bar at Aspers Casino.
A mixture of specially invited guests, MVPs and qualifiers are enjoying a champagne reception with live music and a buffet as a start to their weekend of poker. Some may be playing the Opening Event tonight but we expect the majority to relax, enjoy themselves and the hospitality and table games before they get down to poker tomorrow.
There's enough poker to keep anyone happy over the next 10 days here at the 888Live London Festival at Aspers, but it you do find yourself with some spare time to explore London, Chad Holloway has 5 recommendations for you.
There have now been 183 players registered and 18 re-buys to make 201 entries and 169are still in action.
Jim Manlove has just registered after the break having failed to make it through Day 1a but he wasn't going to pass up an evening of poker at Aspers with a £120,000 guarantee.
Among the re-buys are Terry Jordon and Vincent Anderson.
Tiffany Michelle, actress presenter and poker player will be joining the 888Live London Festival next week for the Main Event and the Ladies Event that features a $13,000 package to the WSOPE Main Event.
Michelle is best know in the poker world for being the "Last Woman Standing" at the 2008 World Series of Poker Main Event where she finished 17th for $ 334,534.
