The guaranteed prize pool is typically exceeded during any given match. 888 Poker is combining two of the best things in the world, football and poker. While you are watching your favorite football team win on the pitch, you can win on the poker table and end up being able to witness Celtic claim victory firsthand. Celtic is currently sitting at the top of the Scottish Premier League by one point over rival Rangers.
