€1 Million GTD Bratislava Poker Festival: Big Names Head to Slovakia in July
The €1 Million GTD Bratislava Poker Festival is set to attract top poker players to Bratislava’s Card Casino from July 18 to 23. The venue is Bratislava’s Card Casino, situated only 1 minute drive from the airport, making it the perfect location to be able to fly in for a one-off event. This popular casino is said to be one of Europe’s rising stars in the industry.
The action will kick off with the Mystery Bounty tournament that has a €50,000 guarantee. This is followed up by a €400 buy-in event and a smaller one of only €150. The festival’s main tournament—the €550 €500K GTD Grand Prix—gets going on July 19 with six Day 1 starting flights. Then it is all topped off with the €3,000 €200K GTD High Roller event.
Satellites for the series are available online on partypoker and Optibet.lv for players located in Latvia from as little as $0.01. Fintan Gavin, CEO of the Irish Poker Tour, sounded excited about bringing some of his recipe for live poker festival success to the heart of Europe, and predicted that a strong Irish contingent will fly out to Slovakia to support the new series.

Argus RivenI've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
