Dates announced for the PokerStars Championship
Get a preview of the first events in the PokerStars Championship and PokerStars Festival next year.
As we prepare to say goodbye to the European Poker Tour next month, PokerStars have revealed more details for the first events of the PokerStars Championship and PokerStars Festivals next year.
The first dates from January to August 2017 have been announced, most notably with a PokerStars Championship Barcelona event added, to replace the incredibly popular EPT Barcelona held around the same time of year.
To remind you, PokerStars Championships are EPT sized events with Main Event buy-ins around $5,300/€5,300 and the PokerStars Festivals are more in the mold of UKIP/Estrellas/IPT events with Main Event buy-ins around €1,000/£1,000. Busy side event schedules including High Rollers will be present at every stop.
