The PokerStars.com European Poker Tour (EPT) launched its first season in September of 2004 in Barcelona, Spain. The EPT season begins with the event in Spain and finishes with the EPT Grand Final in Monte Carlo. In between, there are stops around the continent and the Caribbean Poker Adventure in Aruba. On the EPT schedule are events in London, Copenhagen, San Remo, Dortmund, Prague, Warsaw and Budapest.
