EPT Heads for Poland

The European Poker Tour (EPT) is pleased to announce that a new event in Warsaw, Poland, has been added to the schedule for Season 3.

The inaugural Warsaw EPT, 14-17 March, 2007, will have a maximum capacity of 300 players and a 15,000 Zloty buy-in (€3,900 approximately), with the no limit texas hold’em tournament taking place at the Hyatt Regency Hotel.

The EPT, sponsored by PokerStars.com, is Europe’s richest poker tour with over €7m paid out in prize money so far in Season 3. More than 500 players have won EPT seats via PokerStars.com this season.

“An EPT tournament in Poland will help raise the game’s profile in Eastern Europe, and we have secured a world class venue to host the event in Warsaw. This tournament is not going to be televised, but I see this as an exciting first step for the tour,” said EPT Chief Executive John Duthie.
