New EPT kicks off tomorrow, Paris beckons with new venues and a great experience

The prestigious EPT poker series will bring a total of five festivals during 2024, and the whole show kicks off tomorrow. In the most romantic city in the world, the EPT will welcome poker players from all over the world, and all signs point to something to look forward to!

Europe's most prestigious poker series, the European Poker Tour, will celebrate its 20th anniversary this year, and there are 5 stops for all poker enthusiasts to look forward to this year. The opening stop of the 2024 edition will be the festival in Paris, where the series will take place for the first time at the new Le Palais des Congrès. Here, it promises to be an even better, bigger and more intense experience than last year's premiere in the French capital.

Players will be treated to 120 tournament tables over the course of twelve days, where the most exciting poker events will be played out in succession. Like every EPT stop, the one in Paris will be no exception and will bring players key tournaments:

  • FPS Main Event: 14-19.2. - €1,100
  • FPS Cup: Feb. 17-18 - €550
  • FPS High Roller: Feb. 18-19 - €2,200
  • EPT Super High Roller: Feb. 18-20 - €50,000
  • EPT MAIN EVENT: FEB. 19-25 - €5,300
  • EPT Mystery Bounty: Feb. 21-23 - €3,000
  • EPT High Roller: 23-25.2. - €10,300

Last year, the EPT made a dream debut in Paris, with the Main Event becoming the biggest ever played outside of Barcelona thanks to 1,606 entries. The proud champion here was Romanian qualifier Razvan Belea, who parlayed a $530 online satellite into a valuable title and a €1,170,000 prize. Will it be able to surpass those numbers this year?
