Ever since PokerStars cancelled several European live events back in March, players have been waiting patiently for the announcement of a major online poker festival to take their place.
And after the recent success stories of SCOOP, the Stadium Series and WCOOP, PokerStars has now unveiled the EPT Online.
The festival runs from November 9th until November 18th and comes with a $20 million guarantee across 20 events. It is split into the EPT Online – where buy-ins range from $215 to $25,000 – and the Mini EPT Online – with buy-ins from as little as $2.20.
Play in the $5,200 EPT Online Main Event
The 2020 EPT Online Main Event takes place on November 15th. It is a four-day event with a single starting flight that gets underway at 18:05 (GMT). Players are allowed up to two re-entries during the late registration period, which runs until five minutes before the start of Day 2.
| Day | Date | Time | Structure |
|---|---|---|---|
| Day 1 | November 15th | 18:05 | End of Level 15 |
| Day 2 | November 16th | 18:10 | When 72 players are remaining |
| Day 3 | November 17th | 18:05 | When 9 players are remaining |
| Day 4 | November 18th | 18:05 | Down to a winner |
