The Polish Poker Days, powered by Legalny-Poker and KKPoker, have set sail in Bratislava. From November 3rd until November 13th all action will prevail at the Banco Casino in the heart of the capital city of Slovakia. For ten days straight, many players from Poland and beyond will gather and try to get a piece of the €300,000 guaranteed prize pool of the Main Event.

For just a marginal buy-in of €125, it is promised to be a massive playing field with re-entries flying around like birds escaping the winter and flying south. Previous editions have shown that the Polish influence of Legalny-Poker has left its marks, resulting in events with over 3,000 players. This time, with three flights to come, the counter already shows 3,046 entries!

Polish poker law is an area full of uncertainties, and due to this reason, the Polish often move abroad to be able to organize big live poker events. You could compare their market with the one of Norway for example. Perhaps the recent elections, giving the opposition the upper hand to create a leading group in the Polish government will result in possible changes to the poker law. Just like all the poker Poles, we stand alongside them as clarity is extremely important for the industry we are dealing with every single day.

Banco Casino Welcomes Another Massive Poker Festival

Banco Casino has already for years the place to be for events such as the Polish Poker Championship, where low buy-ins are the dominating factor of the event, and the guaranteed prize pool is reaching the sky. With a guaranteed total prize pool of €500,000, divided over several events, it is promised to be of great value in the heart of Bratislava during this event. Not only will the tournaments be extremely juicy, but the cash games will be fully packed around the clock. As it’s already ongoing since the beginning of the week, we can see the numbers increasing every single day!

If you are around Bratislava at this point, you might just be able to give it a spin at Banco Casino together with all the Polish players who have come to the capital in hundreds. The Summer edition of this event had attracted 3,630 entries, which we think will easily be surpassed today in the Winter edition. It was Serbian Mario Skenderovic who took down the Summer edition for a massive payday of €52,115, followed by second player finisher Davita Khonelidze from Georgia who took home €42,715 after they have a deal Heads-Up.
