Over €6M in Prize Money Guaranteed Across Europe This November
November is a massive month for poker players across European countries, with over €6,000,000 in guaranteed prize pools. The CAPT Million is back at Casinos Austria Baden with €1M GTD, WSOPC at Casino San Remo, The Festival in Bratislava at Banco Casino, Eagle €2M GTD Mystery & Million Series at Arena Casino in Tirana, and the €2M GTD Circus Poker Series in Namur.
CAPT Million €1M GTD (20 Nov – 1 Dec)
The CAPT Million is back after record-breaking success in 2024, almost doubling the €1,000,000 guarantee. When the dust settled, Austria’s own Stefan Stanojevic escaped a field of 3,400 entries with €172,200 of the €1,700,000 prize pool, making it the largest event ever played in Austria.
This year’s CAPT Million at Casino Baden runs from November 20 to December 1 with a guaranteed prize pool of €1,000,000. The buy-in is €550 and pays out a minimum cash prize of €1,500 to approximately 10% of the field.
Start days are available across Casinos Austria properties throughout the country, offering players from all regions the chance to make it to Baden for Day 2. The CAPT Million is played as a “best stack forward,” meaning a player can qualify multiple times for Day 2 with the largest stack being put in play. For each Day 1 bag, the player receives a €4,000 bonus from the tournament prize pool.
