Great Britain is one of the world's biggest poker markets and home to some of the best-known and best-liked poker personalities. The British Poker Awards presented by @Bluff Europe are an homage to these players' talent, their love for the game, and their efforts to engage with fans and inspire more people with their passion.
Voting is now open for the fifth annual British Poker Awards in 15 categories, including best live tournament player, best online player, personality of the year, and performance of the year. You can start thinking about the best poker hands you've seen in the past year as a special new category will be added shrotly - Poker Hand of the Year!
The organizers Bluff Europe called on an expert panel to choose the nominees for which the public will be voting online. This year's judges include PokerNews' Matthew Pitt, PokerStrategy's Barry Carter, RankingHero's @Nicolas Levi, CalvinAyre.com's Lee Davy, Late Night Poker creator Nic Szeremeta and 'Voice of Poker' Jesse May.
