Qualify for EPT Events Through PokerStars Power Path!
Let’s be real: we’ve all been dreaming about playing the biggest live poker tournament events. Feeling the thrill of going deep in an EPT has been described as an incredible feeling, and we can understand why. Just being in the same room as well-renowned poker professionals ought to be enough to give any poker enthusiast goosebumps.
When it comes to live poker events, it’s hard not to think about the European Poker Tour. More commonly referred to as EPT, the tour has been a massive success ever since its first event back in 2004. It’s really no surprise that the EPT set the standard for live poker events considering it’s created by PokerStars, and they have been managing the tour for roughly two decades now.
Now your dream of playing the EPT could become a reality. Earlier this year PokerStars launched Power Path, and it will take you all the way to the biggest live poker tournaments!
Win Your EPT Packages Through Power Path
The Power Path concept is simple yet extremely beneficial. You could think of it like a ladder that has four steps and in the final one, you’ll have a chance to win either a Bronze-, Silver- or a Gold Power Pass.
The first step is a delicate $0,50 Spin & Go. These tournaments are available in an “on demand”-like format. When you take your seat at a Spin & Go table, a spinning wheel will appear that decides what’s at stakes.
Power Path Spin N’ Go Prizes and Probability
| Prize | Probability |
|---|---|
| $10 300 Gold Power Pass | 1 in 1 000 000 |
| $2 500 Silver Power Pass | 10 in 1 000 000 |
| $109 Bronze Power Pass | 500 in 1 000 000 |
| $11 Power Path Step 3 Ticket | 11 500 in 1 000 000 |
| $1,50 Power Path Step 2 Ticket | 351 422 in 1 000 000 |
| $1 Power Path Step 2 Ticket (Sit N’ Go) | 636 567 in 1 000 000 |
So, already through the first step you could win a Gold Power Pass, which you can use to finance any EPT stop of your choice (or selected big online poker tournaments if you’d rather prefer that).
As can be understood from the table above, the Spin & Go’s will most likely take you to step 2 in Power Path. If you win in step 2, you’ll go through to step 3 and if you win in step 3, you’ll get to step 4. Step 4 is played in the form of a $109 MTT, and the player who manages to win the tournament will receive a Gold Power Pass. The runner-ups will have to settle with Silver- and Bronze Power Passes – which is quite the consolation prize!
It should be mentioned that players could choose to buy in directly to step 2 and/or 3, however, in order to participate in step 4 you’ll need to acquire a ticket through the qualifying steps.
