Poker Tournament Europe Schedule

 

With just a little over a month till the highly-anticipated 2019 World Series of Poker Europe event series, it is great to see that the WSOP is still committed to making it an amazing experience of all poker fans. The festival is so close but more events are being added to the schedule which adds on the anticipation that we all have for the event.

Featuring a comprehensive slate of tournaments in every major poker variation, the WSOP is poker’s longest-running tournament in the world, dating back to 1970. In 2019, the event attracted 187,298 entrants from 118 different countries to the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas and awarded more than $293 million in prize money. 2019 World Series of Poker Europe Adds to Schedule Dates Remain October 13 to November 4, 2019 FIFTEEN WSOP GOLD BRACELET EVENTS SCHEDULED FROM €350 TO €250,000 King’s Resort in Rozvadov, Bustling with High Stakes Action, Rounds Out 2019 Offering.

Harrahs owned casinos run a series of low buyin poker tournaments, known as WSOP circuit events. The winner of each circuit event main event wins a WSOP main event seat. So far the circuit events have enjoyed moderate success, often due to direct competition from the more successful World Poker Tour or European Poker Tour events held at the.

The timer shows you the remaining time for the current. 2020 Rock ‘N’ Roll Poker Open will run from 18th November till 2nd December at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino Hollywood. This tournament features over 26 events including events such as the Omaha 8 or Better, H.O.R.S.E, PLO and the NLH Deep Stack.

Following the massive success of the 50th Annual World Series of Poker in Las Vegas, there are of course some very high expectations for the 2019 WSOPE – most people are hoping that it will either live up to the success of the annual poker series or even surpass it. Well, this might actually be possible thanks to the addition of a fie new events to the lineup bringing the total number to 15.

“We heard the feedback and are happy to add some mixed games and some bigger buy-in tournaments in order to encourage more players to make the trip. After hosting some big events here at King’s recently, players insisted to me they would come back to WSOP Europe if we added a few additional tournaments. So, we have now done so and we look forward to welcoming them with this revised WSOP Europe schedule in October,” Leon Tsoukernik, the owner of King’s Resort, said about the changes that were made to the WSOPE schedule.

The full schedule can be viewed on the WSOP website but here is a summary of the five new tournaments that were added:

  • Event #4: €250,000 Super High Roller No-Limit Hold’em
  • Event #5: €2,500 Eight Game Mix
  • Event #6: €25,500 SHORT DECK No-Limit Hold’em
  • Event #10: €25,500 Mixed Games Championship
  • Event #13: €2,500 SHORT DECK No-Limit Hold’em

In addition to making the event much more exciting, the new additions are a great opportunity for poker players to lock down some WSOP Player of the Year honors.

Driving Bigger Prize Pools

While prize pool guarantees are usually not as much of a big deal as the Player of the Year points when it comes to WSOP tournaments, the WSOPE is quite different, to say the least. This is because it features over a whopping €22 million in guarantees which is definitely too hard to ignore.

The addition of the “SHORT DECK” games is quite a big deal especially considering that it is fairly new vertical that has been around for less than a year. Even so, the popularity of the games is a clear indication that WSOP is doing the right thing by adding it into their schedules. Something good is expected to come out of it.

Home » Poker News » Latest Poker Tournament Cancellations Due to Coronavirus

The number poker tournament and series cancellations related to the coronavirus outbreak around the world are increasing by the hour. Just since yesterday, another dozen or so events have been cancelled or postponed.

The initial cancellations happened in Europe and Asia, but as the number of COVID-19 cases in the United States increased, more poker tournaments accompanied it. Some venues and tour operators are cancelling due to an abundance of caution, per recommendations of the World Health Organization. Others are making these moves in conjunction with state governments that are restricting gatherings of people.

No matter the reason, the cancellations continue to accumulate.

Prior to This Update…

Casinos and poker rooms, tournament organizers and casino managers are all using different terms: cancelled, postponed, to be rescheduled. At this point, most of the intentions regarding these events are merely speculation, as no one knows how long the outbreak will continue.

With that, these are the poker tournaments and events that are not running as scheduled, ones we knew about when we published yesterday’s notice (in alphabetical order):

–888poker LIVE Bucharest

–APT Vietnam

–Barriere Poker Tour Ribeauville

–Bounty Poker Tour in Estonia

–Colorado Poker Championship Spring Series

–Daytona Beach $50K GTD in Florida

–Golden Poker Tour Marrakech

–Irish Poker Open

–PartyPoker MILLIONS Cyprus

–PokerStars Lex Live 3 in London

–PokerStars Road to PSPC in France, Germany, and Spain

–Triton Poker Jeju

–Unibet DeepStack Open in Aix de Provence

–Winamax Grand Final in Madrid

–WPT and PartyPoker LIVE Barcelona

–WPTDeepStacks Maryland

–WPTDeepStacks European Championship Deauville

Interestingly, while most poker players tend to support the cancellations in the name of player safety, one player went beyond to suggest that all live poker must stop immediately.

All poker operators: stop.

Suspend all tournaments and cash games now.

There isn’t a more infectious environment imaginable than a poker table.

Shut it all down.

That may be inevitable, judging by the speed of closures this week, but it remains to be seen.

Cancellations in Last 24 Hours

In alphabetical order, these are the cancellations (or postponements) announced in the past 24 hours.

APT Sydney

The Australian Poker Tour decided to cancel its upcoming APT Sydney series at Bankstown Sports Club. The small series was scheduled for April 1-5. The Aussie government’s recommendation to refrain from large gatherings prompted the move.

Whilst this is disappointing, given the circumstance and for reasons beyond our control, we must adhere to our Government’s restrictions and actions in the efforts to combat COVID-19. The duty of care is not only on us as Poker Operators but also as members of the general public. pic.twitter.com/TQu9XVJrtN
