  3. The Autumn 2023 Malta Poker Festival Schedule has been Announced!
Tuesday 15th August, 2023

The Autumn 2023 Malta Poker Festival Schedule has been Announced!

By Kelly Saxby
Live Events Main Event Travel News

After the Malta Poker Festival Spring Edition exceeded its expectations, MPF has announced once again, an increased guaranteed prize pool for the Autumn Grand Event with a whopping €500,000 on offer! 

Players can look forward to an action-packed schedule at the Portomaso Casino, Malta Poker Festival taking place in St. Julian’s 23 October – 30 October, 2023.  

The major highlight this Autumn is the €550 MPF Grand Event powered by Unibet DSO, returning with an impressive €500,000 guaranteed prize pool. Players will receive a 50,000 starting stack, and the tournament features seven starting flights, with 50-minute levels on Days 1A and 1B, followed by 40-minute levels Days 1C, 1D and 1E, and 20-minute turbos Day 1F and 1G. Participants will be entitled to two re-entries and can register until Level 8 each day. Players also receive a free casino buffet dinner on Grand Event play days. 

MPF Spring saw 1,226 entries in the Grand Event, culminating in a prize pool of €586,760. Scotland’s Lewis Coffin emerged as the victor, pocketing €100,600. MPF Autumn expects to smash the €500k guarantee!

Live satellites into the Grand Event begin 23 October and run through 27 October. For just €70, players receive a 15,000 starting stack and play 20-minute levels. Unlimited re-entries are available for the first eight levels.

Save time and the hassle of exchanging and carrying cash with MainEventTravel.com, where you can buy-in to the Grand Event in advance. Head straight to VIP to pick-up your pre-purchased ticket, and you'll receive priority over alternates with your advance buy-in. Your chips will not go into play until level 8, just in case you want another hour by the pool before you start!  

MPF Autumn Offers Something for Everyone

The Malta Poker Festival Autumn Schedule  has something for every level of player. Buy-ins range from €120 for The Amateur Poker Association & Tour Maltese Championship and the Bounty Hunter Progressive, right up to a €1100 High Roller, with €150 satellites available for the HR!

In addition to a Deepstack, a Win the Button, and Mystery Bounty Event, there are tournaments to suit every player.  

PLO Knights Crusaders, a popular Pot-Limit Omaha event, commences on 28 October with a €200 buy-in. Participants will be armed with 35,000 starting chips and 25-minute levels. 

There is also a €230 H.O.R.S.E. event, €230 Crazy Pineapple, and the Betsson One Bullet €150 for those who love a freeze-out.

Autumn also features a live satellite to the WPT Prime at the Wynn Las Vegas!! 

MPF Organizer Ivonne Montealegre is also International Affairs Director for the Women’s Poker Association and takes pride in running the Ladies First! event.  Renowned poker player and Twitch streamer Ylva Thorsrud will host the event on 28 October, which has an enhanced structure for Autumn. With a €150 buy-in, the tournament features a starting stack of 25,000 chips and 25-minute levels, accompanied by unlimited re-entries for the first eight levels. The Spring edition of Ladies First! drew both amateurs and professionals, culminating in a victory for AJ Rudolph.

The Seniors Event will be hosted by Esteemed Irish Poker Tour ambassador Paul ‘Rinty’ Monaghan and takes place 29 October. This €230 buy-in tournament features a 30-minutes clock and 35,000 starting stack. 

You can see the FULL SCHEDULE HERE and BUY-IN for all tournaments in advance on MET. Skip the queues, and arrive when it’s convenient, receiving priority along the way!
