London Poker Festival returns with a £200K guaranteed Main Event in November

The London Poker Festival returns this November, bringing a £200,000 guaranteed Main Event to Genting Stratford. The festival, an away game of the Irish Poker Tour, caters to grassroots players with a £355+£45 buy-in.

The Main Event features eight starting flights, with players receiving 30,000 chips and up to two re-entries per flight. Previous editions saw buy-ins ranging from £300 to £700 and guarantees from £100,000 to £500,000. In 2024, an extra starting day was added, but the £200,000 guarantee was not met.

Other events include the £400 Mystery Bounty and the £500 London Omaha Championship, adding up to over £350,000 in guarantees. Players can qualify through live and online satellites for the Main Event and other tournaments. The 2025 edition is expected to see rising attendance.

The London Poker Festival offers a chance for players of all levels to compete for substantial prizes. With a £200,000 guaranteed Main Event and a range of other tournaments, the festival promises excitement and opportunity. The winner of the 2025 Main Event remains to be seen.
