One of the most popular events may very well be the €220 Opening Event, not least because it has an impressive €150,000 guarantee. This tournament features four starting flights, the first taking place at 6 p.m. local time on Jan. 26 with subsequent Day 1s running on Jan. 27 and Jan. 29. Satellites to the opening event run at King’s Casino and only cost €50 to buy into.
Another tournament that is a must-play event is the €888 buy in Main Event, which guarantees at least €300,000 will be won. Day 1a commences at 6:00 p.m. on Feb. 2 with Day 1b starting at the same time on Feb. 3. The third and final starting flight shuffles up and deals at the slightly earlier time of 2 p.m. on Feb. 4 due to 888 expecting a much larger number of entrants entering on this day.
The 888Live Rozvadov festival runs at the same time as 888poker’s Super XL Series online. You can follow daily updates of the Super XL Series here on PokerNews along with updates from our live reporting team who are covering the Opening Event, Main Event and €5,300 High Roller.
