Re: BARCELONA POKER ADVICE
Book early the hotel. barcelonahotels.es
H10 Marina closet, other than the arts. If you can afford 600 euro a night, stay at the ARTS which is the tower right above the casino. Next best place is AC Marina which is a 1 mile walk. Other than that anywhere in city is ok, the taxis are almost free, well maybe not if you are from USA =] The cash games are 20-40 limit holdem, and 5-10 plo, sometimes NL. There sometimes are saturday 200 rebuy tourneys, but they are lame. Cash is good. Good luck. [ QUOTE ] Hi guys, I am looking for any advice on poker tournaments in Barcelona.

Better link here:

[/ QUOTE ] Everything is more expensive to Americans in Europe right now thanks to the weak dollar, but... The Burj Al Arab is a similiar price, and by all accounts definitely worth it. Can't say I see the point myself, but there're lots of good hotels in Barcelona. Some hotel recommendations from the EPT: http://www.europeanpokertour.com/EPT...l#accomodation I think the AB Skipper might be sold out though, I think we (PokerStars) have booked all the remaining rooms... |
