The 2026 King's Million European Poker Championship here at the King's Resort, Rozvadov continues today with its highly anticipated €1,150 EPC Super Main Event, boasting seven starting flights and a staggering €5,000,000 guarantee.
This morning at 11 a.m. marks the start of Day 1c, the first non-turbo flight of the Super Main Event, giving players who prefer a slower structure the chance to battle through 40-minute levels in pursuit of the next King’s Royal Sceptre.
Over the past two evenings, the first two turbo flights have attracted 373 entries on Day 1a and 532 on Day 1b. Nik and Navide Felíciano led the respective flights, bagging stacks of 1,554,000 and 1,388,000.
Nik is already off to an impressive start in Rozvadov, finishing 7th in the €1,000 Mystery Bounty for €23,600 earlier this week.
