It's back!

For the fourth straight year, Viva Las Vegas returns to Sky Poker. And in response to demand, it starts much earlier this year.

The Landing Pages & details will be formally announced very shortly, but for now, we already know that.....

There will be FIVE monthly Finals, one each for....

January

February

March

April

May

Qualifying details will be almost identical to previous years, except that in addition to Freezeout Satellites as before, there will ALSO be Rebuy Satellites. Something for everyone.

The FIRST MONTHLY FINAL will be at the end of January.

    Be great if you could qualify for Vegas again Hoggers. You ran really bad last time you were in Vegas, maybe this time the poker Gods will be kinder.

    Good luck bud.

    We'll get a Thread going to keep tabs of who has qualified for each Final, etc.

    So, you can qualify from as little as £1.45, which is the price of a round of drinks down the pub. Or was when I last bought one.

    The first Satellite - a £1.45 jobbie - made 25 runners, which is pretty neat.

    1 in 5 make tonight's Quarter Final, so that's 5 seats locked up already.

    We'll try & keep viewers updated about tonight's Quarter-Final during the Live Show, which will be on from 8pm until Midnight.

    Good point Wack-Jacko-Joe90.

    Nevada State law prohibits anyone under 21 playing poker in Las Vegas Cardrooms.

    You have plenty of time.

    Sara - make sure you bink your Seat in the Feb Final.
