Black Belt Roshambo Live



Black Belt Poker are proud to announce details of the first ever Black Belt Roshambo Live, taking place alongside the inaugural East End Live at the Aspers Casino, Stratford.

Braced for an April 22 debut, Roshambo Live will pit competitors against each other in the ancient and celebrated art of rock-paper-scissors, with sixteen teams of four vying for the illustrious honour of Black Belt Roshambo Live Team Champions.

Adopting the tough and thankless role of tournament director will be Blue Belt and UKIPT Brighton luckbox Jamie Burland.

"Roshambo, like the noble sports of chess and darts, is almost 100 percent skill," confirmed Jamie. "In poker, the best man might not win, so I wanted to run an event at East End Live that wasn't dictated so much by variance and where the eventual Champions can go home knowing that they are truly the best in their field."

For those who have encountered Jamie at the poker table and are expecting an easy ride, think again; Jamie will be ruling with an iron fist and has compiled a detailed rules of conduct to ensure a smooth and seamless operation.

"As the 2011 Team UK Rock-Papers-Scissors Champion, Jamie comes with bags of experience," commented Black Belt Neil Channing, "and I have the utmost confidence that he is the right man for the job. He'll be enforcing the law impartially and won't hesitate to show a yellow, or even red card if a player steps out of line."

Entry into the event is £50 per team, with the winners taking home a sumptuous £400 first prize as well as the knowledge that they outwitted their opponents with mere hand gestures and an intimidating stare.

If you would like to participate, then simply find three other willing victims and submit your team and team name to tournaments@blackbeltpoker.com. You will then be sent payment details. The deadline for registration is Monday, April 16, although don't delay as the event is capped at 16 teams.
