The EAPT Takes a €200,000 Gtd Main Event to Malta This April
Table Of Contents
The Casino Portomaso is the location for the next stop on the popular EAPT, with the tour calling it home from April 5-10. The 2024 EAPT Malta festival features five action-packed tournaments, including the €200,000 guaranteed Main Event, which the PokerNews Live Reporting team is bringing you all of the action from.
EAPT Malta's Main Event features six Day 1s, including a pair of turbo-structures flights, each costing €560 to enter. Each EAPT Malta Main Event Day 1 plays until only 15% of the field remains, with those surviving players progressing to Day 2 with a min-cash locked up. Levels on Day 1 last 40-minutes, with the turbo-structured Day 1s featuring 20-minute levels.
Unlimited re-entries are permitted until late registration closes, which is after the sixth level for Day 1A-1D, and after Level 9 on both turbos.
In addition to having a €200,000 guaranteed prize pool, the 2024 EAPT Malta Main Event awards the top five finishers a €5,000 package to the EAPT Grand Final in Cyprus. The EAPT Grand Final is a $2,200 buy-in, $2 million guaranteed affair held at the Merit Royal Diamond Hotel in North Cyprus from May 4.
