Anyone who paid attention in geography class back in school knows, of course, that Tartu is a city in Estonia. In the country’s second-largest city after the capital, Tallinn, five days of poker are on the schedule from October 20 to 24, 2026. The schedule for the Tartu Poker Championships at the Tartu Kesklinna Casino features two tournaments: the $150 Main Event and the $100 Omaha Championship.
The Main Event is the centerpiece of the Tartu Poker Championships. For a buy-in of 150 euros, players receive a starting stack of 40,000 chips. Blind levels last 30 minutes each. Players can choose from three starting days to qualify for Day 2. Day 1A takes place on Tuesday, October 20. Other options include Day 1B on Thursday, October 22, and Day 1C on Friday, October 23. All three flights begin at 6:30 p.m. Late registration is open until 9:00 p.m. on each day. The second day of the tournament is scheduled for Saturday, October 24, at 2:00 p.m.
The Omaha Championship also begins on Saturday at 6:30 p.m. The buy-in is 100 euros, and the starting stack is 25,000 chips. At 20 minutes each, the blind levels are slightly shorter than in the Main Event. Players also have the option to make up to two rebuys.
