High Roller Action Kicks Off at 2025 Eastern Poker Open

The Eastern Poker Tour has reached the finals of Season 34, with exciting action already underway this week at the Doubletree by Hilton Boston Milford.

Today marks the start of the $1,650 High Roller, with the first of two days kicking off at 12:00 p.m. local time as players take their shot at a sizeable prize pool while also helping donate to local charities.

The dramatic Day 1 action will play down to the final eight players, who will return on Saturday, April 5, under the bright lights of the Eastern Poker Open livestream table.

Players will start with 100,000 chips, as blinds begin at 100/200 and a 200 big blind ante. Late registration will remain open through the first 12 levels of Day 1, with reentries also allowed until that point.

Each level will last 40 minutes, with a break after every four levels that includes a scheduled 40-minute dinner break.
