WIN YOUR SEAT TO THE FIRST EUROPEAN POKER TOUR EVENT OF SEASON 7 ON POKERSTARS.COM

Juni 24, 2010

Satellite qualifying tournaments are now running for the first ever EPT Tallinn stop – the debut event of
the PokerStars.com EPT Season 7. The event will run August 11-16 at the luxurious Swissôtel in Tallinn,
the stunning capital city of the Baltic state of Estonia.
A host of stars are already signed up for the €4,250 event, including: Team PokerStars Pro Katja Thater;
EPT Barcelona and WSOP bracelet winner Carter Phillips; EPT Berlin and EPT Players’ Choice Award
winner Kevin MacPhee; EPT Snowfest and Achievement of the Year winner Allan Baekke; EPT Kyiv and
EPT6 Player of the Year winner Max Lykov; and Friend of PokerStars Pierre Neuville. Almost 50 players
have already won their entry in satellites on PokerStars.com and at last week’s PokerStars Baltic
Adventure. Expectations are for more than 400 players in what will likely be the largest and richest poker
tournament ever held in the Baltic states.
Satellites for the EPT Tallinn Main Event are running now on PokerStars.com and PokerStars.it with a
full prize package worth €6,000 going to the winners. This includes a Main Event buy-in, seven nights’
accommodation at the 5* Swissôtel and €770 spending money. Players can qualify for as little as €5.45
or 250 Frequent Player Points.
Tallinn, the capital of Estonia, is not only one of the oldest capital cities in Northern Europe but also one
of the most beautiful. Located on the southern coast of the Gulf of Finland, the city boasts one of the
best-conserved medieval old towns in Europe and is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Summer
is the perfect time to visit Tallinn, which is famed for its vibrant nightlife and is often dubbed “the party
capital of Northern Europe”.
For players from around the world who are eager to enjoy a glorious summer on the Baltic,
PokerStars.com will be running a series of special online qualifier tournaments awarding “Super
Package” entries to both the PokerStars.com Russian Poker Series (RPS) Riga event in Latvia and the
PokerStars.com EPT Tallinn, as the two events run consecutively in two neighbouring countries. Players
will be able to qualify online for the €9,150 super-package, which provides winners with entries into both
events, hotel accommodation in both Riga and Tallinn, and includes transfer between the two Baltic
capitals, plus €1,360 for expenses.
The €2,000 Russian Poker Series Riga tournament takes place August 6-10 in the Latvian capital,
another stunning Baltic city famed for its nightlife and known as the “Paris of the North”. At the end of the
event, a bus transfer will whisk qualifiers 300 km north-east up to Tallinn for the EPT. Satellites for RPS
Riga are running now.
