Play in EPT San Remo for Free
Mar 30, 2009By: Jeremy Olson Since its humble beginnings back in 2004 the European Poker Tour has quickly established itself as one of, if not THE, premier poker organization in the world. And the event held in San Remo, Italy is definitely one of the EPT’s flagship poker tournaments since it features a multi-million prize pool along with lots of participants. What’s great about all of this is that you could be one of the participants who gets to compete for the multi-million prize pool without even paying a dime.
That’s because Titan Poker has decided to send people to EPT San Remo through sizeable $9,280 prize packages. The prize packages Titan is offering not only covers the $8,000 buy-in to the Main Event, but they provide $1,280 for traveling expenses and hotel accommodations. This offer is extremely enticing because of the large amount of money up for grabs and because San Remo is one of the most beautiful cities in the world as it’s situated right on the Mediterranean coast.
All you have to do to win your $9,280 EPT San Remo prize package is enter the poker satellites and poker freerolls that Titan is currently running. Here is a look at the different ways in which you can win a San Remo package (all times are GMT):
• On April 6th, 8th, and 10th at 19:45 there are EPT San Remo Stage 1 Satellite Freezeouts running. The buy-in for these tournaments is $12 + $1.20 and 1 EPT San Remo Super Satellite seat will be given out for every $132 collected in this tournament.
• On April 5th, 7th, and 9th at 19:45 there are EPT San Remo Stage 1 R/A tournaments and the buy-in for these is only $6 + $0.60. Titan Poker will award 1 EPT San Remo Super Satellite seat for every $132 that is collected in these tournaments.
• The big EPT San Remo Super Satellite will take place on April 11th and players can buy directly into these tourneys for $120 + $12. This is where the $9,280 EPT San Remo prize packages are awarded and the Main Event takes place from April 18th – April 23rd.
The small buy-ins to the poker satellites that Titan Poker is running are nothing compared to the amount of cash you stand to win in EPT San Remo. Last year’s EPT San Remo winner, Jason Mercier, pocketed $1,364,330 for winning the Main Event. Mercier wasn’t the only one making money though since there was over $5 million in the total prize pool and the top 8 finishers all made at least $120,000!
EPT San Remo has been growing in popularity too so you can expect there to be even more cash involved in 2009. All you have to do to get a shot at the millions of dollars in prize money is download Titan Poker and start playing. If you play very well you could be the next Jason Mercier and win well over $1 million!
