Cards are in the air here in the PokerStars.com EPT Malta €25,000 High Roller!
There are still a lot of empty seats, but that's not really a surprise. A lot of players like to late register, and those looking to make their way to the venue for the first time need to register for a membership card, obtain a wristband, etc.
A quick glance at the main entrance line revealed a lot of familiar faces, so we expect things will fill up sooner than later.
The PokerStars.com European Poker Tour has never been afraid of change. The powers that be are constantly trying to offer players a fresh and rewarding poker experience based in wonderful locations around the continent.
Ever since Malta was announced last November there has been a huge amount of anticipation about visiting this beautiful Mediterranean island for the first time. Being the first time the EPT has stopped here though means there should be level of caution when drawing up the schedule, right? Wrong!
The 12-day festival at the Portomaso Casino will feature a staggering 68 events, the most ever put on at a live event by PokerStars. Day 1A of the €1,100 IPT Malta Main Event has already started but our live coverage will kick off with the special €25,000 buy in High Roller event.

A huge live satellite took place last night where seven players won seats. They included Team PokerStars Pro Jonathan Duhamel; Argentine online star Ivan “Negriin” Luca; Fabian Quoss, Sorel Mizzi and Bryn Kenney. They’ll be plenty more players joining them, so we urge you to come back from 1 p.m. to find out.
