King’s Resort remains unmatched worldwide this year. At the WSOP Europe in King’s Prague, history was made, but strong numbers were also reported in Rozvadov. Over €10,000,000 were paid out in the Main Events. And more than €13 million at the WSOPE Prague.Even the big casino resorts in Las Vegas cannot compete here. There are always highlights, and especially in the summer, places like Wynn and Venetian guarantee really huge prize pools. But no casino offers such a comprehensive lineup week after week as King’s, making it effectively its own biggest competitor. Because if you can’t make it to King’s this week, there’s always another tournament banger next week or the week after that.
In fact, there’s not just one million-dollar guarantee per month. Currently, the France Poker Festival is running, which is already the second million-dollar tournament in May. In June, La Notte Degli Assi and the anniversary edition of King’s Million will follow. July is all about the €590 Euro Poker Million, which boasts an incredible €3,000,000. In August, there’s “only” the next edition of the Italian Poker Sport with €1,500,000 GTD. However, it will really heat up at the end of September/beginning of October. Because at the King’s Million European Championship Festival, there will be a total of €10,000,000, with €5,000,000 alone for the €1,150 King’s Million Main Event.
At the end of October, the Balkan Poker Circuit with a million-dollar guarantee will also come, followed in November by the Wolf Millionaire and the German Poker Masters 1 Million, the next million-dollar tournaments. By December, things will slow down a bit with “only” the Pirates Poker Treasure Christmas Mystery Bounty having the million-dollar guarantee.
With the exception of the EPC, all buy-ins are in the three-digit range, with the EPM in summer already being the most expensive format at €590. In other words, with a small investment, you can win millions.
This makes it almost difficult for other festivals; however, they do manage to impress with other features. Of course, “The Festival” plays a major role as the largest NLH & Mixed Games tour Europe has to offer. After a successful season opener in Bratislava, it heads briefly to the Baltics before returning to King’s in June for the hottest poker action in all its variations.
While Eurorounders is involved in almost all million-dollar tournaments, Pokerreis organizes the Dutch/Benelux events, and of course the German Poker Days guarantee full tables at the German events. The community is growing, and many are taking the opportunity to secure packages for the festivals through regional providers.
Aside from a small gap in November, all festivals for 2026 have been announced, and the options are almost unbelievable. If you want to play big fields with moderate buy-ins, you don’t have to go to Las Vegas; King’s provides the right offerings. In addition to the Main Events, there are numerous Side Events that ensure plenty of action at every festival. Cash Games start at €1/2 NLH or €2/2 PLO blinds.
