$10,300 EPT High Roller
Dia 1 Começado
The inaugural PokerStars European Poker Tour Cyprus has already seen multiple players find a score of over six figures and the next opportunity at a massive prize pool and life-changing money starts today in the $10,300 EPT High Roller.
The last time this event ran was at the 2023 EPT Barcelona festival last month where Ka Kwan Lau banked a massive €910,400 score after beating a field of 475 total entrants. Today the same structure will run, and players will descend on the Merit Royal Diamond Hotel Casino & Spa to take their shot at the title, the prize money, and the trophy.
This event allows for a total of two entries with late registration closing at the start of Day 2. In total, this will be a three-day event with each day kicking off at 12:30 p.m. local time. Day 1 will see 10 levels of action before players break to bag for Day 2.
Players will begin with 50,000 in chips and the blinds will start at 100/200/200. This tournament will feature 60-minute levels with a 20-minute break after every two levels and a 75-minute dinner break at the completion of level 6. Approximately 15% of the field will make the money.
At the start of the event, a shot clock will be implemented. Each player will receive four time bank cards worth 30 seconds each at the beginning of the game. Additionally, players seated at the first hand of every even level number (2, 4, 6, 8, etc.) will get an extra time bank card. If a player gets eliminated and re-enters the game, they can claim the same number of time bank cards they had at the time of their elimination when they take their seat again. It is not possible to claim time bank cards later.
Make sure to stay tuned into PokerNews for all the updates on who will be crowned the next champion at the first-ever PokerStars European Poker Tour Cyprus!
Waiting for more players to jump in the tournament, the start is slightly delayed.
