888.com Announces Poker Open V

888.com has announced the launch of its fifth Poker Open which will be filmed for Sky Sports at the Maidstone television studios from Oct. 27 to Nov. 7.

This exclusive event has only 108 seats on offer, meaning every aspiring champion will get a shot at their own few minutes of fame. 888Poker.com is giving 35 online qualifiers a chance to star alongside 65 professionals, and 8 celebrities, including Shane Warne and Ronnie O’Sullivan, in the battle for the $250,000 guaranteed top prize.

Marketing Director for 888.com, Matt Robinson, said, “The 888.com Poker Open Championship is certainly a highlight in the poker calendar. Now in its fifth year, the competition is attracting some of the best players in the world which makes for an even more competitive tournament than last year. The TV cameras will no doubt capture all the excitement and unexpected turns from start to finish.”

The action will be aired every Tuesday night at 10 p.m. between January and June 2009 on Sky Sports.
