Online 888Live Destination Venice package winners will be seated, alongside 888 Team Ambassadors, with players from all over the World competing for big money and all for the buy in to a low cost satellite.
Online Satellites
The satellites to 888Live Destination: Venice are running now and are found through the 888 Poker lobby – all games / tournaments / live events. Whilst researching this article I found that these satellites can be under subscribed and, in some cases, cancelled because the minimum entrants had not registered to play. This could be your chance to pick up a bargain. Last chance 1st April 2014.

The Venue
Established in 1638 the Casino di Venezia moved to it’s current impressive location in the 1950’s, on the banks of the Grand Canal, which incidentally was the last place Richard Wagner (famous composer) lived. This elegant location was once a renaissance style stately home but is now a top notch casino venue with first class restaurants and gardens overlooking the Grand Canal.
