European Poker Tour
  Visit Poker Stars |
The European Poker Tour was launched in 2004 as a more international version of the extremely popular World Poker Tour. While the WPT makes most of its stops in North America, the EPT, true to its name, never leaves Europe. The tour consists of six (euro)5000 buy-in tournaments and finishes with a seventh, (euro)10,000 event.
An interesting feature of European Poker Tour tournaments is that they have a cap on the number of players that can enter each event. The caps are large enough (usually set around 500 players) that the prize pools are still extremely attractive, yet small enough to remove the “crapshoot” aspect found in many of the mega-field tournaments, such as the World Series of Poker Main Event.
While the European Poker Tour is officially sponsored by PokerStars, satellites for events on the tour can be found on many sites. Packages typically include not only the buy-in for a tournament, but airfare and accommodations as well.
