EPT Scandinavian Poker Tour Prize Pool

PRIZE POOL FOR COPENHAGEN POKER TOURNAMENT EXPECTED TO REACH EURO 1.8 MILL
Direct buy-ins are now sold out, but you can qualify via the Internet
The winner of this contest in the frozen Scandinavian north could take home Euro 525 000. We're talking the European Poker Tour's four day Scandinavian Open poker event which takes place in Copenhagen next year between January 17 and 20 (see previous Online-Casinos.com/InfoPowa reports)
Direct buy-ins were in big demand by international poker pros and have already been sold out, but aspiring champs can still gain entry by fighting their way through the various satellite competitions on leading online poker sites. These have low buy-ins and the victors can win themselves travel and entry packages for the big event next year, where they can pitch their poker skills against some of the top players in the world.
One of the sites offering a qualifier is Titan Poker.com, but there will be others that a diligent search can find.
With a prize pool of Euro 1.8 million there will be stiff competition, but a sizeable number of players will find themselves "in the money" even if that massive first place eludes them.
