Europe’s hottest low-buy-in tournament
In 2014 the Battle of Malta was low-buy-in Event of the Year! Last year unbelievable 1,803 entries created a massive prize pool of €874.940 and that for a buy-in of only €550!
In addition to that, it is still warm and sunny in Malta in the beginning on November and players have the chance to combine the event with a holiday.
There is no doubt, that the Battle of Malta is the hottest low-buy-in poker tournament in Europe! That’s why we decided to give two of our members the chance to be part of it.
What were the prizes?
We gave away two Battle of Malta VIP Sponsorships worth €1,575 each in two freerolls at Partypoker.
The Battle of Malta VIP sponsorship packages include:
- The buy-in of €550 for the 2016 Battle of Malta Main Event
- 5 nights at the 5-Star Hilton Hotel with breakfast included
- Tickets to all 4 BOM VIP Player Parties
- Access to side events, off-site activities and merchandise giveaways
- Free Buffet during the tournament
Who are the winners?
As mentioned above the two VIP Sponsorships were played out in two different freeroll, which took place on Partypoker on the 9th of October.
And the winners are:
- Partypoker Username: “winatuska”
