Hungarian conquering online poker
Many online poker rooms are trying to get into the eastern European market for the last 3 years or so, but only recently there has been a significant rising in the Hungarian market.
Other than the fact that there are many poker players conquering the different poker tournaments including the WSOP with many bracelet winners, the EPT and others.
Maybe the success of so many Hungarian in the well known international poker tournaments is the reason, or maybe it’s the economy which has caused so many unemployed people looking for alternative ways of making money.

Peter Gelencser winning the last PartyPoker European challenge
Peter Gelencser, a young rising star in the world of poker. This 20 year old poker player took home first place with over 160,000 Euro in the European challenge held by Party Poker.
I was especially impressed by Gelencser’s quiet style, as opposed to his 2007 performance. While in the 2007 games he stood up throughout all the games but failed to reach the top, this year he was not even noticed till the few last rounds and ended up taking first place.

Big Disappointment for the WPT held in Slovakia
Big Disappointment for the WPT, (World poker tour) which took place in Slovakia. The event didn’t attract as many people as the organizer expected. Local participants say that there were only 100 players so far.
The winner of the first stage was the Hungarian poker player – Richard Toth. It’s not really a big surprise since Toth is an experienced poker player and has already won the forth position in the WPT that was held in the Bellagio.
