Battle of Malta Spring Edition Reveals Dates!

Battle of Malta – Spring 2025

The Battle of Malta has evolved into a true spectacle for live poker players from around the world. Where in the beginning years of the event it was only held once a year, it consists now out of two events per year. The Spring edition is the little brother of the Autumn edition, and the Main Event will come with a buy-in of €600, and a whopping guaranteed prize pool of €500,000!

Whenever an event or team has found the winning formula, it will be odd to change it. That’s exactly what the crew of Battle of Malta must have thought when announcing the Spring edition. The buy-in, starting stack, guaranteed prize pool, and a variety of side events, are all equal to last year’s edition.

Highlights

• €600 Battle of Malta Main Event (April 3-9)
• €300 Mystery Bounty (April 3-4)
• €1,100 High Roller (April 6-8)

The Main Event of the Battle of Malta is by far the flagship event of the series, giving players 30,000 starting chips to begin with. Several opening flights will be held, where the unique Chip Leader Bonus will be once again back in place. And of course, the buy-in is maintained at €600 (€530+€70). Who will be added to the Battle of Malta Wall of Fame this time and step in the footprints of previous winners such as Vasileios Zisis, Cosme Martinez, and Dario Barone?

Each opening flight will play down to 15% of the field, and secure their spot in the money before going into Day 2. The Chip Leader Bonus is once again on the line, providing a stunning €5,000 to the Chip Leader during each opening flight.

Side Events

While all eyes are set on the highlighted events, there will be plenty of tournaments available in different sort of formats such as Omaha, and other mixed-games. During the previous Autumn edition in 2024, PokerListings had been present on location and can verify that side events are really out of proportion when it comes to player attendance.

*The mentioned tournament schedule still has several tournaments mentioned only as ‘side events’, but in the coming period, the official full schedule will be published as well.
