King’s Casino to Host 2016 WSOP Circuit Festival
This was published 07-10-2016Following the huge success of the 2015 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Circuit festival that was hosted at King’s Casino Rozvadov, the Czech Republic’s premier poker venue will be running another World Series of Poker Circuit festival offering combined guaranteed prize pools of over €2,250,000.
The 2016 World Series of Poker festival is scheduled to run at King’s Casino from Thursday, 27th October to Monday, 14th October 2016. In addition to massive sums of cash, there will also be 14 gold rings to be won, making Rozvadov a definite place to be for poker.
Although each of the 14 tournaments are expected to be hotly contested, it is obvious that every tournament player will be attracted to the World Series of Poker Circuit, a €1,650 buy in tournament run over four days (including two starting flights) with a guaranteed prizes pool weighing in at €1 million.
Day 1a of the €1 million guaranteed Main Event is due to take place at 2.00 pm on 11th November with Day 1b, Day 2 and the final days play kicking off at the same time on subsequent days.
When the World Series of Poker Circuit Main Event took place at King’s Casino in November of 2015, it attracted a field of 715 entries. Mateusz Dziewonski, who hails from Poland, outlasted all of the 715 entries with the exception of one and managed to walk away with an amount of €206,027 for his investment of €1,650.
Those players competing in the Main Event will no doubt also consider competing for the title of High Roller and Super High Roller champion. Any player who wishes to battle it out for either of these accolades are required to put €5,300 and €8,888 on the table and be prepared to take on some of the best poker players in the world.
The €5,300 High Roller event features a guaranteed prize pool of €100,000 while the larger €8,888 Super High Roller does not have any guarantee. The latter will be played over a single day.
Satellites for the €1 million World Series of Poker Circuit Main Event can be obtained at King’s Casino or online at 888poker. The online satellites that cost $160 to enter, guarantee that at least one package worth $2,250 will be won, with additional packages adding on for each amount of $2,250 in the prize pool.
The winner of this package will be awarded a €1,650 buy-in for the World Series of Poker Main Event as well as a six night stay at the King’s Hotel Rozvadov.
