The 7th instalment of the PokerStars European Poker Tour begins today with the €4000 + €250 NLHE Main Event of EPT Tallinn in the downtown Swissôtel.
Tallinn is the first Baltic city to host the EPT, but encouraged by the success of the PokerStars Baltic Festival in October 2009, organisers expect about 600 participants. The Main Event takes place on 11-16th August with side events along the way varying between €300 + €30 PLO Turbo and €10,000 + €300 NLHE games.
Tallinn replaces Kiev, Ukraine which also was a stand-in for Moscow in Season 6. Further stops are the following: Vilamoura (28th August – 2nd September), London (29th September – 4th October), Vienna (26-31st October), Barcelona (22-27th November), Prague (13-18th December), Paradise Island (8-14th January, 2011), Deauville (25-31st January), Copenhagen (21-26th February), Saalbach-Hinterglemm (20-25th March), Berlin (5-10th April), San Remo (no details available) and a Final Event location yet to be announced. Rumour is, however, that the possible locations include Cannes, Rome and even Iceland, according to the Doyle’s Room Blog.
