€200,000 is Guaranteed in the EAPT Barcelona Main Event; Full Schedule Inside
The EA Poker Tour (EAPT) heads to Casino Barcelona in sunny Spain from September 29 through October 8, and everything points to it being a spectacular occasion. Eighteen events adorn the busy schedule, including a €560 buy-in €200,000 guaranteed Main Event that the PokerNews Live Reporting team is covering in full. The Main Event also comes with a cool €20,000 worth of packages for the EAPT Grand Final.
EAPT Barcelona kicks off on September 29 with the first of four flights in the Mystery Bounty event. Costing €450 to enter and guaranteeing €40,000 in the prize pool, it is the perfect way to get the festival off to a flying start.
The €250 buy-in €40,000 guaranteed EAPT Cup is another tournament that should not be missed. It runs from September 30 through October 2, and serves as a great way to warm up for the Main Event.
Day 1A of the €560 buy-in €200,000 guaranteed EAPT Barcelona Main Event shuffles up and deals at 2:00 p.m. on October 5 under the watchful eyes of the PokerNews Live Reporting team. The Main Event features four flights, including a turbo-structured Day 1D, before spanning across a second and a third day before crowning its champion.
There is the option to play an online Day 1 at GGPoker, Natural8, EAPoker, PokerOK, or any other skin on the network. Progress to Day 2, and you'll have to make your way to Barcelona in time for Day 2 on October 7.
In June, the EAPT Rozvadov Main Event saw 596 players fight it out over a €400,000 prize pool. An anonymous player walked away with €81,500 for their victory. A month later, some 1,632 players piled into the Imperium Room in Milan, and created a €316,920 prize pool. Italy's Julio Anzelmo defeated their fellow countryman Dario Nittolo heads-up to secure a €54,500 top prize.
High Rollers are also catered for with a €1,100 buy-in €40,000 guaranteed High Roller. Of course, there are several satellites feeding into the High Roller if you fancy a shot at the big time but find the €1,100 is outside your bankroll's constraints.
