Possibly inspired by all the hand clapping and anthem playing currently taking place in Beijing, the think-tank at the EPT has decided to have an award ceremony just before its new season flops off in Barcelona.
On September 9, at the Barcelona lounge called the Opium Mar, seven trinkets of community appreciation will be handed to players who offered great individual performances from EPT season IV.
The ceremony will be a curtain raiser to season V but it also offers an opportunity for the poker community to give something back to those pros that have selfishly manufactured an egotistical attitude just so they can give us watching railbirds some fine entertainment.
Two of the seven awards will be voted for by the lumpenproletariat and there will also be a Poker Writer’s Award (that your loyal correspondent has no chance of winning due to mistakenly greasing the wrong palm) announced by the EPT media circus.
The other four winners will be chosen by a panel of experts, including pro Victoria Coren, EPT founder John Duthie and a poker editor called John Caldwell.
