When it comes to making the most of your spare time, there is no doubt that many poker players enjoy being able to play poker from the comfort of their own home. Of course, a good number of Mac poker players have the option of being mobile with their computer and this means that Mac Poker players are not limited to playing in their bedroom or living room. With a good internet connection, these poker players can play wherever they want, which is one of the best things about online poker sites.

888 Poker knows all about the benefits of playing poker in different places and the company provides live poker tournaments in addition to their 24/7 online poker options. The next big live poker tournament from 888 Poker is coming in May, and there is a fantastic setting for this event. This is because the next 888 Poker Live Festival event, taking place between May 11th and May 22nd, is going to take place in Barcelona, at the Casino Barcelona venue.

Big prizes on offer in Barcelona

With 12 days of poker in one of the greatest cities in Europe, there will be a lot of poker players looking forward to get involved with the event but anyone looking for another reason to head to the capital of Catalonia will be delighted by the guaranteed prize pool of €700,000 on offer.

It is possible to buy your way directly into the tournament but where is the fun in that? There are qualifiers available on the 888 Poker site, with a number of routes to the big tournament. The fact that buy-ins will begin at a price of 1¢ makes the pathway accessible to virtually everybody on the site. You will need a touch of luck to make your way through to the Barcelona event from such a low buy-in, but the opportunity is there. There is also an Opening Event Qualifier, which carries a $12 buy-in while the Main Event Qualifier carries a $30 buy in.

This is likely to be something that will grab the attention of many Mac Poker players because who wouldn’t like the idea of having the chance to play poker in sunny Barcelona at the start of summer. It should hopefully be cool enough to allow you to wander in the daytime before the poker action starts in the evening, and this would ensure poker players get the chance to enjoy the best of both worlds.

It all starts with online poker though and Mac players have the chance to book their passage through to Barcelona by playing on the 888 Poker site.
