Three weeks ago we were finishing the 12th season of the ecu Poker Tour in Monaco. Three months from now we'll be starting the 13th in Barcelona.

With the top of 1 season the brand new one is rarely far away, and the brand new season, which starts within the traditional setting of Barcelona, promises to top everything that has come before. 

We know that because we have seen the schedule, that's released today. 

The entire festival begins on August 17, 2016, with events bound to cause fireworks. That's when the €10K event begins alongside the six day Estrellas Main Event, which this year has three starting flights.

After that comes the €50,000 Super High Roller, which begins on August 20, with the overall table three day in a while August 22, the day that the EPT Main Event starts.

This year the principle feature has the similar buy-in of €5,000 and is ready to be a record breaker. Last year Casino Barcelona positively strained to deal with thousands of players searching for one of the vital festival action, and it didn't disappoint. As a season starter there may be nothing quite find it irresistible. Did we mention the elements is also quite good too?

As the EPT Main Event plays on it is going to conclude alongside the 3 day €10K High Roller which concludes on August 28. Two whole weeks of poker, at stakes as little as €120 and as high as €50,000, with all manner of buy-ins in between. The phrase "something for everybody" was never more applicable. 

For all of the details take a look at the EPT homepage which has details of all of the Barcelona festival, now just three months away.
