Changes will be incorporated in season 11 of the EPT, as new events are in the pipeline to attract new crowds to the festivals and allow as many individuals to play as possible. There will be a senior’s event, which is for players of 50 years of age or older, a reduction in the buy-in for the Women’s Event from €300 to €200 as well as the opportunity to qualify for the new “Championship Events”, which includes HORSE and Stud events.

“Season 10 has been a tremendous success and we’ve had some great feedback from players who welcome the even greater variety of events at the festivals and the wide range of buy-ins. Partnering the local tours means our events are more accessible than ever before and we pride ourselves on providing the most professional playing environment available anywhere in the world. We will be building on this formula in Season 11 and, as always, constantly striving to enhance the player experience.” President of EPT, Edgar Stuchly said in a press release.
