Kings of Tallinn €1,100 Main Event Kicks Off at Noon

pokerlistings live report kings of tallinn 2022

Welcome to the PokerListings coverage of the 2022 Kings of Tallinn €1,100 Main Event at Olympic Park Casino and the adjoining Hilton Tallinn Park.

The Main Event boasts two opening flights and uniquely they both take place today with Day 1a kicking off at noon followed by a turbo Day 1b at 8 p.m. 

The event provides plenty of play with players starting with 30,000 in chips. This equates to 300 big blinds for the first two blind levels. This combined with the one-hour levels and unlimited re-entries permitted until the start of Day 2. Players will have plenty of opportunities to build a huge stack with late registration not only open throughout both opening flights but also during the first blind level of tomorrow’s Day 2.

The tournament boasts a deep structure with hour-long blind levels. The main exception to this rule will be on Day 1b, which is described as a faster flight but still provides plenty of time to make moves with 30-minute blind levels. Players will bag their stacks after eight blind levels of play. The shorter days allow players to also enjoy the plethora of side events on the schedule.

Kings of Tallinn Main Event History

The Kings of Tallinn began in 2015 when Estonian poker hero Ranno Sootla defeated a field of 140 entries to win the €37,330 top prize. Since then, Johan Creutz, Matias Knaapinen, Juha Helppi, Vitalijs Zavorotnijs,Johan Karlsson, and Claudio Di Giacomo had their moment in the sunshine after winning the Kings of Tallinn Main Event from 2016 to 2021.

Team Challenge Creates a Vibrant Environment

One of the things that sets the Kings of Tallinn apart from other festivals is its Team Challenge. Players join in groups of four, and if they can't find a team they can get assistance from Nousiainen and her team.

A total of 2% of the prize pool qualifying tournaments (events with at least 12 players that aren't satellites) will go into the Team Challenge prize pool. As you can imagine, this will add up quickly with the top two teams awarded 75% and 25% of the prize pool respectively.

Head to the Kings of Tallinn Team Competition landing page to sign-up for your team along with more details about the contest.
