Located just on the outskirts of France, in the beautiful region of Wallonia, the Grand Casino de Namur is the most dynamic in the region in terms of poker. MEGASTACK Namur looks set to have a huge field, so make sure you join us in September! With this new poker program that offers self deal tournaments as well as tournaments with dealers Grand Casino Namur is well on its way to make it another great poker season. By organising these tournaments with a lower buy-in the poker events are more accessible for every type of poker player. In 2017 won hij het €220 Steal the Button toernooi van de Breda Poker Series, waarna hij enkele maanden later ook nog een side-event bij de World Poker Tour Valkenburg won. In diezelfde week werd hij ook nog zevende in het WPT Deepstacks €2.200 Main Event. Die Geldplatzierung erzielte er Anfang Dezember 2015 beim High-Roller-Event der Belgian Poker Challenge in Namur, als er den mit rund 7000 Euro dotierten sechsten Platz belegte.

During the series, the players will fight for the Belgian title and for a share of the €500,000 guaranteed prize pool up for grabs in the Main Event.

While all the guarantees combined reach the staggering total of €750,000, BPC organisers' expectations are bolder: they believe the prize pool will cross the seven-figure mark and make BPC winners even happier than in 2018.
The event is one of the most important in the region, and to accommodate the desire of fans and families to follow the adventures of their heroes at the felt, the BPC will be streamed live on a variety of platforms.
As usual for BPC events, the key to their success is an attractive tournament calendar full of interesting options and ways to stay busy throughout the entire festival.
This year's top events include a €100,000 GTD. High Roller (buy-in: €2,200) and a €500,000 GTD. Main Event with a €1,100 entry fee.
The Main Event features 50-minute levels on Day 1, then 70-minute levels on Day 2, and 90-minute levels during the last three days of competition.

Poland's Puczylowski to Defend the Title
Last year, Polish hero Marcin Puczylowski took down the Main Event title and a €126,252 check after a short heads up with France's Donato Sparavilla (€79,208).
In the calendar also in December 2018, the series' High Roller turned out to be an all-French affaire, despite a total of 82 entrants.
France's Stéphane Nicot and Parham Ahoor were the only two survivors at the table when they decided to sign off on a two-man deal that brought €80,000 to each player.
