The Spanish Poker Championship by PokerStars begins the countdown for the start of its new season, an especially significant edition as it celebrates the 20 anniversary of the dean circuit of Spanish poker.
In its two decades of trajectory, the CEP has played 143 stages in 20 different cities and has accumulated nearly 50.000 registrations in the Main Event, consolidating itself as the reference circuit of national poker.
As is habitual, Casino Barcelona will give the kick-off to the new season, which will be played from 4 to 15 March and will once again bring together national and international players at the star venue of the festival, which has been the scene of the largest participation records of the championship.
The Barcelona stage will feature a complete program that will include 10 events, in addition to face-to-face satellites, among which the Main Event (buy-in €500) and the Mini CEP (€250) stand out, as well as the Mystery Bounty (€160) or the 6-Max (€250).
