 Overview

Each qualifying round is based on Texas Hold’em No-limit at €50 + €10 with unlimited re-buys (during the first hour) plus one add-on. This means that participants receive 1000 chips in return for their €60 registration fee. During the first hour, they can buy a further 1000 chips for €50 as many times as they wish, as long as their remaining chips are worth less than their starting amount (1000). At the end of the re-buy period, participants may also opt for an add-on, enabling them to buy 2,000 additional chips for €50. This option is open to all players, but may only be used once at that specific time.
