UK gambling giant Victor Chandler is teaming up with grassroots organization Poker in The Pub to bring live poker to various venues across the UK.

Victor Chandler’s Head of Poker, Andy Horne, stated, “We are very proud to be sponsoring Poker In The Pub and happy to be able to give something back to our UK customers. The Poker In The Pub league is a great way to learn the game at no cost whilst at the same time, benefit from fabulous prizes including all expenses paid trips to Las Vegas and exclusive online freerolls.”

Dave Brannan, Managing Director of Living It Loving It, the company backing Poker in The Pub seemed equally thrilled. “We are very pleased that Victor Chandler have become our sponsor, their brand and vision fits perfectly with the evolution of our league and we believe that the players will benefit from the association with such a trusted company. Over the coming months we will build on this relationship and all of our players will see the added advantages that Victor Chandler brings, especially those lucky players who will be at our final table in Vegas.”

Last week, Victor Chandler signed a deal with Microgaming to run its online casino.
