The European Poker Tour (EPT) arrives in London today for its second event of the tour's third season.
Following a highly successful tournament in Barcelona, the Victoria Casino plays host to the 400-seat £3,500 buy-in event.
Many of those in attendance will have won their seats through online competitions and a number of the members of Team Pokerstars have qualified in just such a fashion.
In addition, top professionals such as 2005 World Series of Poker champion Joseph Hachem, Luca Pagano, Isabelle Mercier and EPT Monte Carlo Season 2 Grand Final winner, Jeff Williams, will be on the tables.
A large British contingent is also expected to be trying their luck at this prestigious event.
Last year's event saw Mark Teltscher take home the winning pot of £280,000.
