ALL DETAILS AND OFFICIAL SCHEDULE
ISPT New Format
The whole poker community was thrilled by ISPT. This enthusiasm led the organisation to start the tournament earlier in february, so that players could play Day 1 online from home and
continue Day 2 in Wembley!
PLAYERS HAVE TWO OPTIONS TO PARTICIPATE:
• Online access
Each month, players will have the opportunity to play the main event online. The tournament will be composed of 6 “Day 1”
• live access
Players can buy-in directly to start the ISPT tournament from Day 2 in Wembley stadium
Day 1 a To Day 1 f :
• Buy-in: 300 €
• Freezout
• 10% of the remaining players will be qualified to continue the tournament live in Wembley for Day 2
• Players coming to Wembley will keep the amount of chips at the end of Day 1 for Day 2
Participants can play as many Day 1 as they want. If the player progresses through more than one Day 1 online then only the biggest chip stack from that player will be carried forward to the main event. The lower chip stacks will be taken out of play and credit will be refunded to players.
The Prize Pool
As regards the total Prize Pool, Laurent Tapie is clear :
“ In view of the number of registered players, we have the ambition and we are very confident that the
prize pool will exceed € 10 million. The Main Event prize pool is not guaranteed. On the other hand, this
new tournament format and the innovative structure of the payout will be a success for the players."
