The second season of the Grand Series of Poker got underway earlier this month at Old Trafford football stadium in Manchester, England and the second stop is just under two months away in equally dramatic surroundings.
The event takes place in Porto Carras, Greece from October 11 to 15 and online qualifiers are currently underway at PartyPoker.com with the weekly finals taking place each Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday until September 25 while the Super Steps qualifiers also take place on Sunday – check the lobby for details but be warned, the age limit for playing live poker in Greece is 23!
The main event at the festival is a €1,500 + €150 buy in tournament with a 20,000 starting stack and one hour blinds.
Over 100 seats will be given away online and the prize pool will therefore be at least €150,000.
In Manchester 257 players played the main event and winner Jens Kerper walked away with $81,175.
