The PMU.fr World Poker Tour National Marrakech kicks off in two weeks, running Sept. 24 through Oct. 2. The Main Event is a three-day 13,200 MAD (approximately €1,200/$1,350) single reentry event held Sept. 30 till Oct. 2.

The Main Event boosts a guaranteed €300,000 prize pool and promises to be once again very busy. Players will start with a 30,000 starting stack and levels will be 60 minutes long (first level: 50/100). Players have the option to reenter once within the first eight levels of play.

The World Poker Tour has had a presence in the famous Moroccan city since 2009. After three regular World Poker Tour Main Events and a one year hiatus, the tour returned as World Poker Tour National Event in 2013. The tournament attracts huge numbers, with a lot of local poker fanatics and French players competing in the event.

PokerNews.com will be on-site to deliver you all the Main Event updates one can ask for, and will be covering the final table of the High Roller on Sept. 29.
