Just a quick post to remind the poker players out there that registration for the 2008 BC Poker Championships are underway! I just heard from my inside sources that are some exciting pros playing in this year’s week long championships and of course I should remind you that this is one of Canada’s largest poker tournaments.

Every year we have been lucky enough to have poker pros Brad Booth, Gavin Smith and Lacey Jones here for the week. Those three will be here again as well as a few new faces. Daniel Nugreanu and Gabe Kaplan are confirmed stars now to this years exciting events, thanks to Poker Stars. BC has been waiting a long time to see Canadian favourite Nugreanu up here so this is BIG news!!

River Rock Casino Resort is again this year’s host property. Although it is under some heavy renovations their 5 star service still remains and anyone lucky enough to come to this tournament, as a player or spectator, will not be disappointed at the gaming floor and their state-of-the-art show theatre transforms into a gorgeous poker facility for the week.

Here are some photos that I’ve taken from past BC Poker Championships:
