It’s all change at Partypoker as they prepare to launch their 172-event Powerfest Online Poker Series; return to Pure Poker after the removal of re-entries, and bring online tournament structures in line with the World Poker Tour.

With all eyes on PokerStars, Spring Championships of Online Poker (SCOOP) partypoker throw out a timely reminder that they are still more than a viable option when it comes to finding an online poker game to tickle your fancy.

The month of May will see partypoker launch their Powerfest Festival. Created to replace their Pokerfest Festival, the new structure continues the boxing theme adopted after the former World Boxing Champion Carl ‘The Cobra’ Froch joined the team in November.

Players will have the opportunity to compete in 172-events, split into three different categories, while being buttered up by a combined $7.8m in guaranteed prize money.
