For live poker events there is simple unwritten rule: No international poker tournament can be complete without PokerNews reporting on it. The online poker news outlet is on the scene for almost 20 years now and of course PokerNews will pay our Festival Series in Bratislava a visit.

Be it World Series of Poker, European Poker Tour, World Championship of Online Poker, or the GG Poker Super Millions – PokerNews is always on-board reporting live from the scene and providing updates about every major poker event worldwide. This September Pokernews will join us in the Banco Casino in Bratislava following the inaugural stop of the Festival Series.

While the hand reporting and full tournament coverage for our Festival Series will remain in house and can be found on our site, PokerNews will provide regular updates, recaps, and impressions.

About PokerNews: PokerNews is a website providing poker industry news and tournament coverages since 2002. It was founded by the poker player, and politician Antanas "Tony G" Guoga and is now part of iBus Media, a subsidiary of the Stars Group.
