As the players get ready to pack up and leave the comfortable surroundings of The Goldstrike and Horseshoe in Tunica where they have spent the past 4
weeks playing in the World Poker Open, we look to February and which events will pull in the players. There are 16 events to choose from, with many small
buy-in tournaments, so if you have not played in a live cardroom before, the small tournaments are a great way to start. Most eyes will be focused on
the LA Poker Classic where all the big names will gather to try and win that all important seat in the WPT event.
With Valentines just around the corner, what a perfect gift an annual membership to www.PokerSchoolOnline.com
would be for your loved one.
With the school members taking home over $50,000 between them in January from live tournament events, it is just the proof you need that practice does
make perfect.
