Bigger buy-ins and bigger prizes for EPT Season 4
Season 3 of the EPT saw most of its events sold out days before they started, with vast numbers of potential competitors having to be turned away.
As a result the EPT has increased the buy-in for many of this year's events from 5,000 EUROS to 7,700 EUROS, bringing it closer to the $10,000 buy-in of the World Poker Tour.
A number of new events have also been added, including the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure, which was previously a WPT tournament.
Explaining the changes EPT chief John Duthie said: "The decision was based on the limited number of seats we have to each EPT tournamnet and the fact that our 10,000 EURO buy-in tournaments have proved to be very popular."
