What Is the European Poker Tour?
The European Poker Tour was founded in 2004 by PokerStars, and today it's the richest tour on the continent. The high profile of the event, not to mention the glamorous locations that host each stop, help to attract many of the biggest and best poker players in the world. At the same time, online satellites give regular players a chance of getting involved at a fraction of the cost of a standard buy-in. Win a package and your accommodation will be covered as well as your seat in whatever stop you play for.

How to Get Involved in the EPT 2023
Getting involved in the 2023 European Poker Tour is just as straightforward as getting involved in any other live poker tournament. All you have to do is buy yourself a seat, make arrangements for your accommodation and make sure you're in the right place at the right time.
Of course, tournament seats aren't cheap, so unless you have four figures to drop you might prefer to try and win your way to the leg of your choice. To do that, all you need is to make sure that you have an account with the PokerStars online poker site. You can then participate in satellites and qualifiers that could, if you're lucky, lead to you winning both a tournament seat and accommodation for the duration.
