Celebrity guests to the event such as American poker pro Phil Ivey and former tennis player Boris Becker are expected to be there.
According to Leon Tsoukernik, owner of the Rozvadov casino, participants are going to compete for 300 million crowns in the main tournament, and the champion will be entitled to a further 100 million.
