888Poker has announced plans to expand upon their successful grassroots 888Live Local tour by creating a higher buy-in 888Live Festival series, and Urmo Velvelt wins the 888Live Local event in Tallinn, Estonia.

888Poker is broadening their live tournament experience.

The team that brings you the grassroots 888Live Local Festival Series is upping the ante with the creation of the 888Live Festival Series carrying the slogan: bigger, better, different.

The new idea will start out slow with the intention of running three festivals a year. For the first, 888 will take advantage of their relationship with the poker room at Aspers Casino, Stratford for 888Live London Oct 13-23.
