Just what schools can take part in this tournament or is it one that is for students of all schools or something like that? I have heard of this tournament but i have not really paid all that much attention to it until now. There must be a heap of students who take part in this, both online and offline. So how exactly do they work all of this to organise which players are the best if it is for all of the schools? Do the schools have to register or something like that? That amount of money is alot of money for any student no matter where they are or what they are studying and could really help the winning student to start out in life in the big wide open world with a spring in their step, money in the bank and prospects in the future.

This tournament online lasts for quite an extended period of time, spanning for four months. That’s dedication to a tournament lol, playing for that long a period of time, i can see many girlfriends getting cranky over that with their boyfriends spending four months playing in online poker tournaments. The money that is there to be won though is a great amount of cash for any student and would be well and truly worth it if they can win it, no more student loans or anything like that, they could pay them off and still have money left over to pay for their studies and probably still have more money after that to do with what they please, spending or saving or whatever they like, could make for a great school year and also make a reputation for themselves.

If they did not continue this tournament beyond this year then it would be a big disappointment to many of us. I think that this tournament will quickly become like a tradition of sorts amongst all of the different schools that take part in it and that for years to come there will be students wanting to follow in the footsteps of past students and taking part in it, i also think that the tournament will help these students showcase their poker skills and really start out making a name for themselves in the poker industry, and possibly they could use it as a way to get recognised, a way to become known, let’s face it lol what students don’t want to be popular and well known? I can’t think of any, I think that it will help showcase the young poker talents that are around these days and may even be our first glimpses of who could turn out to someday be poker greats and champions.

The article does explain that, it tells us that all graduate schools, commercial schools, schools of engineers, IEP, Science, Law, Faculty of Medicine and all students of france and invited by the group to take part in the event. That is a lot of student by any means and a very large amount of poker playing. The live tournament being held in three stages is interesting but also makes a lot of sense, when it comes to this tournament i think that it has been set up really well in a way that makes it less complicated and much more organised when considering the numbers of players that would be involved in it. I can see now why they are holding it in three stages. The whole thing would be sure to draw a big sized crowd of spectators.

The last stage of the tournament sees the top 100 poker players of the first two stages and that coming together all to face off against one another to win the prize which is the part that i think will probably draw the most spectator attendance, not just because it is the final stage of the tournament which is always something that draws huge crowds no matter what the tournament is but also because there will be players in it from various schools which means that there will be plenty of students from these respective schools there to cheer their fellow students on in the name of student and school pride and everything like that. I would go if i was near it just to say that i have been to it, Never know though, may end up knowing some people who are going to take part of something like that, If i do then i definitely will be attending to cheer them on. This is only the second time this has been held isn’t it? Hopefully there will be many more to come yet, i am sure there will be because if they don’t have any more of them then there will certainly be some very disappointed students out there who are wanting their much loved and enjoyed tournament back.

The tournament so far has had such a short life and such a strong popularity that i highly doubt that it will be coming to an end any time soon. I am sure that at least for a few more years we will be seeing this event and being lucky enough to witness the beginning of what will surely end up after some time being some very profitable, shining poker pro careers. These young students in this tournament are already so good at what they do, and they juggle it with study, i think that in a few years time the winners of these kinds of tournaments could be showing up in the WPT and breaking more and more records as the time goes by.

Of course this tournament will continue for at least a few more years yet, surely it would have to. The amount of interest it generates from players and spectators alike means that there will be a following for it and there will always be people eagerly awaiting the tournament to start up again the next year. It would surely be a shame if they were not to pursue this student partouche poker tournament in the future.
