We enjoyed the last Grand Prix so much we’ve decided to kick the next one off straight away – with one big difference…
We appreciate that not everyone can make the trip to attend the traditional live final, so the Grand Prix 9 will play out in your own living room (or bedroom)! That’s right, you won’t have to leave the comfort of your own home to play for your share of the €7,600 prize pool. Just play for points in our online qualifiers and aim to finish in the top 20 to win your seat in the online final. You can also qualify directly by winning one of the freerolls or buy-ins, so even if you’re struggling for points there’s always a chance.
How to enter
The PokerPlayer Grand Prix 9 is a series of ten online qualifiers and a final. Points are awarded for playing the qualifiers, and the top 20 on the leaderboard at the end will win a seat at the final, along with the ten qualifier winners.
