This Sunday 3rd April will see the first 888PL state of origin teams event on the 888 poker client. Teams must have a minimum of 5 players and will be capped at 50 players.

[*]buyin $5.50
[*]start stack 3k
[*]blinds 10 min
[*]prize pool $500 GTD

Get your fellow players in your state to join up to win not only cash but bragging rights for your state.

SA team is looking strong already! 14 players registered thus far which is around twice as much as the next team.

Victoria won the first state of origin held at the 2nd 888PL Grand Final. This only consisted of two states going to battle but they still must be regarded as the reigning champs.

With 888PL operations extending through 5 states now this will surely be a great contest. Which state will be crowned as the new SOO Champs this weekend.

If anyone needs any info regarding this event please feel free to email me directly matthewn@fullhousegroup.com.au

Love the idea guys, im registered. Can anyone tell me how the team score is calculated? Will the teams with less players be at a disadvantage?

I certainly hope so, it's their own fault for not having more players :)

If we were going for true state of "origin" then I would be playing for NSW.
