EPT Cyprus $25,000 NL Hold'em I Kicks Off Today at 12:30 p.m.
The PokerStars European Poker Tour Cyprus at the Merit Royal Diamond Hotel Casino & Spa continues today, October 13, with the $25,000 NL Hold'em I at 12:30 p.m. In addition to today’s event, the schedule for EPT Cyprus also boasts a plethora of other high-stakes events including five more $25,000 buy-in tournaments and a $50,000 EPT Super High Roller event later this week.
The high rollers to find their way to the felt today will be met with a starting stack of 100,000 and will play through 30-minute levels until a winner is crowned. Those unfortunate enough to bust will be allowed to re-enter an unlimited amount of times, with registration closing at the end of Level 10. Approximately 15% of the field will be paid.
A shot clock will be implemented from the start of the event, with all players being given a total of six time bank chips. A singular time bank may be redeemed for 30 extra seconds of thinking time. The players who are seated at the first hand of every even level number will receive one extra time bank.
It is anticipated that there will be a break every four levels, as well as a dinner break which is yet to be confirmed.
PokerNews will be reporting live for the entirety of this $25,000 buy-in event as it plays down to a winner, so be sure to stick with the updates to keep up with all the action.
