€1 Million Guaranteed at the Grand Prix Gala at King’s Casino
Poker players are heading to the King’s Casino in Rozvadov, Czech Republic in the hope they can sign off 2018 by getting their hands on a share of the €1 million that is guaranteed across the two events at the partypoker LIVE Grand Prix Gala.
The Grand Prix Gala runs from Dec. 13-31 at King’s Casino. It features a €220 buy-in and a €550 buy-in tournament that both boast of a €500,000 guaranteed prize pool; partypoker is hosting online Day 1s for both events.
Grand Prix Germany is a €220 buy-in affair running from Dec. 9 to Dec. 17, during which time eight live starting flights and four online Day 1s are scheduled. Players in the Grand Prix Germany event start with 100,000 chips and are permitted to make up to two re-entries if they dust their stacks off while late registration is open. Blinds for Grand Prix Germany increase every 15 minutes online and 30 minutes in the live arena.
Following Grand Prix Germany is the €550 buy-in €500,000 guaranteed Grand Prix Gala, which has two online Day 1s hosted at partypoker and eight live Day 1s at King’s Casino, in a similar format to the Grand Prix Germany Event.
