Poker's Elite Set to Descend on Tallinn for the Bombay High Stakes Week
The luxurious Bombay Club in the heart of Tallinn, Estonia, is making last-minute preparations for a week of high-stakes poker action. The Bombay High Stakes Week starts on July 31 and runs until August 7. No-limit Hold'em events costing from €10,000 to €50,000 will take place in the Estonian capital.
High-stakes players will get to battle across compact fields, capped at 64 entrants, against the lavish backdrop of the Bombay Club. A €10,000 buy-in Turbo Warm-Up gets the festival started on July 31 before the High Stakes Week's €25,000 buy-in Main Event's Day 1 shuffles up and deals at 6:00 p.m. on August 1. Day 2 and Day 3 of the Main Event start at 2:00 p.m. local time on August 2 and August 3, respectively.
Those who enter the €25,000 Main Event, alongside special guests, have priority to play in the €10,000 Bombay Anniversary Invitational, which has €1 million guaranteed.
Sandwiched between the Main Event and the Anniversary Invitational is the massive €50,000 Bombay Big 50, a two-day super high roller that is a new addition to the schedule.
Following the Anniversary Invitational are a €10,000 Fast Bounty and a €25,000 buy-in Grande Finale spanning two days, wrapping up on August 7.
Bombay High Stakes Week Schedule
All events are No-Limit Hold'em, are played eight-handed, and allow unlimited re-entries for the first ten levels. Should high-stakes tournaments not tickle your fancy, cash games with stakes from €25/€50 are available.
