Fantasy Poker Manager officially kicked off at EPT Deauville last season and the poker world was hooked instantaneously.

BUSY TIMES FOR FPM MANAGERS

FPM logoThese are busy times for Fantasy Poker Managers. After a quiet few weeks between the PCA and now, it’s all out for the next little while starting with EPT Deauville and the WPT Borgata Winter Poker Open – that lock on Tuesday followed closely by the Aussie Millions Main Event the very next week.

Managers will have to be extra vigilant and make wise decisions in order to score maximum points all the while not blowing their budgets to shreds! Only the best will survive!

We thank all Fantasy Poker Managers for their loyalty and wish you all nothing but the best for the rest of this 2013-14 season – all in!
