In Bucharest, the festival started on Friday, November 3 with the €250 EAPT Cup. But the €560 Main Event kicks off today, Wednesday, November 8 at 5 p.m. local time with Day 1a, the first out of four flights. Then Day 2 will take place on Saturday, November 11 before the final day on Sunday.
€180,000 is guaranteed on the Main Event, but €20,000 in packages are also added to the prize pool, with the final four players qualifying for the EAPT Grand Final to be held next fall in Cyprus.
But before reaching the top positions, players will have to increase their 40,000 chip-starting stacks on 40-minute levels, starting on blinds of 100-200 and a 200 big blind ante. Late registrations will close at the end of Level 9, with a single reentry allowed per flight. All Day 1s will end when 15% of the field remains, and players who qualify for Day 2 will be in the money.
PokerNews will be following all the action and providing live updates throughout the event.
