The EPT is the latest live poker casualty of the COVID-19 pandemic. The much-loved multi-city trek around Europe is to move online from tomorrow after a total washout during 2020.
Between November 8th to 18th the European Poker Tour will offer online events with buy-ins ranging from $100 to $25,000. Over the 11 days of action no less than $20 million will be guaranteed for all the events, although much more can be expected.
Key Events
There will be more than just the usual NL Hold’em events we expect to see. The new and exciting, all-action short deck variant will be appearing and also the best test of any poker player’s skill—8-game.
From buy-ins that any poker player can afford to take a shot with to the high rollers, it’s all here.
- EPT Main Event
- EPT Arena Championship
- EPT Super High Roller
- Pot Limit Omaha
- 6+ Hold’em
- 8-Game
Live Cards-Up Coverage
For those of you not accustomed to taking on the world’s best in tournament poker you might be put off by not having your moment in front of the cameras. Well, not to worry because full cards up coverage will be provided live with not a single hand missed.
The trophies will all be the same as usual with every last drop of prestige you can expect from a live event.
Freebies
There are tons of giveaways over on PokerStars right now. The new Ticket Machine has $3 million worth of tournament tickets to give away.
For every tournament you play you will receive an entry to the Daily Draw. The type of draw entry you get will depend on what buy-in you played. Simply play more events to win more tickets.

If you’re not a fan of the three-man Spin & Go format then maybe the Mini EPT will suit you. Buy-ins will be around 1/100th of a normal buy-in, making it super cheap and suitable for any bankroll.
If you want to play in the EPT Online for free then check out the Freebuy Feeders running every day. These freerolls offer you a shot at winning hundreds of thousands of dollars with investing a single cent.
This is going to be massive. We can expect all of the usual suspects to be playing at some point during the 11 days. Don’t miss out on your chance to battle with some of the big names in poker.
