EPT Scandinavian Open ceases registrations

By Erin Warner

Start hitting the online poker rooms if you want to play in Copenhagen next month. Direct buy-ins to the European Poker Tour's Denmark stop are sold out.

The event buy-in was €5,000 and the playing field was capped at 400 seats with no alternates. However, players hoping to enter the Jan. 17-20 tournament can still qualify online at PokerStars.com.

The Scandinavian Open, taking place at the Casino Copenhagen, is a No-Limit Texas Hold'em tournament with an estimated €525,000 first prize and a total prize pool of €1.8 million.

The European Poker Tour (EPT) Season 3 has already included tournaments in Barcelona, Londen, Baden and Dublin. In addition to the Scandinavian Open, the EPT schedule includes tournaments in Deauville, France, and the main event in Monte Carlo March 28.

Ram Vaswani of the U.K., Noah Boeken of Holland, and Italy's Luca Pagano are currently leading the EPT in points.
