Matchroom Sport and PKR.com have teamed up to bring players the PKR Heads-Up Grand Slam to be held from October 8 – October 10 at 3 Mills Studio in London. The event will see 32 players square off in a competition for a $350,000 prize pool. The winner will walk away with a cool $100K for their effort.

It has been announced that the tournament will use a deep stack format which means players are given a lot of chips which will allow the players to play a more controlled game without where really skilled players have the advantage.

Top poker professionals Tom “Durrrr” Dwan, Luke “Full Flush” Schwartz, Annette Obrestad, Yevgeniy Timoshenko, Vicky Coren, Nam Le, Sammy “Any Two” George, Roland de Wolfe, JC Tran, Andrew Feldman and Roberto Romanello have all been confirmed with more names to be announced in the coming days.
