The World Series of Poker Europe Main Event Bracelet was unveiled this week at the Casino at the Empire in an exclusive press lunch.
The most sought after object in poker was passed around the lunch table at the Casino at the Empire in Leicester Square.
The strict instruction from the World Series of Poker was that no one was allowed to try it on for size - not even Betfair's Managing Director (Betfair is the presenting sponsor of the event).
Ty Stewart from Harrah's explained why -
"People ask us, 'Why the WSOP Europe?' The secret is in this box, won and lost, honour, prestige, history defined. It is the players who have made it meaningful," said Ty Stewart from the WSOP.
"This bracelet means a great deal to a great number of people."
WSOP Commissioner Jeffrey Pollack has said that these bracelets will have equal value to those won in Las Vegas.
Not something you can expect to find on Ebay then!!
