Defending champion Rupert Elder. Courtesy of PokerstarsThe PokerStars European Poker Tour pulls into Casino San Remo, Italy on Oct. 20 and will stay there until Oct. 28. This is a change for the tour which usually stops off in San Remo in April on its way to the Grand Final in May.

An autumn appearance will see a whole host of events play out featuring a wide range of buy-ins and formats. These include the €1,000 + €100 no-limit hold’em turbo bounty on Oct. 22, the two-day €1,000 + €100 pot-limit Omaha single rebuy tournament on Oct. 24, the two-day €2,000 + €150 no-limit hold’em heads-up event on Oct. 25, the two-day €10,000 + €300 no-limit hold’em single reload 8-max event; and last but not least, the €4,600 + €300 no-limit hold’em main event.

The main event begins on Oct. 21 and features two starting days. The final table will play out on Oct. 27 before the Tour heads off to Greece for its next leg.

Players sit down to 30,000 in chips with 60-minute levels on Day 1 and 75 minutes thereafter.

Last year Rupert Elder topped a field of 987 to take home €930,000. The main event last season had a slightly higher buy-in of €5,300.
