100 PKR players set for BAMMA giveaway

Monday, December 5th, 2011

More than 100 poker players will enjoy the explosive atmosphere at the BAMMA 8 mixed martial arts event in Nottingham on 10 December through a free prize draw at PKR.com. In the fourth event of its kind this year, PKR is again offering players the opportunity to meet staff and other players, against the backdrop of one of sport’s fastest growing events. The prize draw is open to all PKR members and concludes on Friday 02 December.

 

PKR became the headline sponsor of BAMMA, Europe’s premier mixed martial arts organisation, in January 2011. The online poker site has since welcomed hundreds of its members to BAMMA events in Manchester, London and Birmingham, having offered tickets in free prize draws through the site’s busy forum and website.


PKR players who attend the upcoming BAMMA 8 event, which takes place in Nottingham’s Capital FM Arena on Saturday 10 December, will enjoy 13 bouts featuring some of the world’s top martial artists including light heavyweight champion Jimi ‘Poster Boy’ Manuwa, who makes his eagerly anticipated BAMMA debut. UFC legend Randy Couture is also rumoured to be making a promotional appearance.


Community Manager Dan Grant commented, “BAMMA events are a fantastic opportunity for their players to meet PKR and each other in a fun and social real-world setting. They’ll get to put faces to names they’ve met at their online tables and meet new poker mates while enjoying the great atmosphere of a thrilling sporting event.”
