In a highly anticipated return, Northern Europe's premier poker event, the Kings of Tallinn, is gearing up for its milestone tenth year. From February 23 to March 3, 2024, poker enthusiasts will gather at the iconic Olympic Park Casino and Hilton Tallinn Park Hotel in Estonia's capital for an exhilarating 10-day poker extravaganza.

With over 50 tournaments on the schedule, including the Main Event boasting a guaranteed prize pool of �500,000, Kings of Tallinn 2024 is set to surpass its own legendary status.

Established in 2015, the Kings of Tallinn festival has grown into a global poker phenomenon, drawing participants from over 30 countries. With a significant presence from poker powerhouses like Finland, Sweden, and Estonia, the event showcases the international allure of the Estonian capital as a poker hotspot.

Main Event Highlights

The centerpiece of the festival, the �1,100 buy-in Main Event, is scheduled to take place from March 1-5. Unveiling an ambitious mission to break records, the organizers, Olybet, are not merely meeting expectations but aiming to shatter them. Known for consistently exceeding guaranteed prize pools, Kings of Tallinn has become a staple among top poker players globally.

The 2023 edition witnessed a total prize pool of nearly �2.2 million, with the main tournament offering �673,400. Estonian poker maestro Priit Parmasto clinched the top spot, walking away with �97,400. In 2022, Adam Kharman of Australia secured victory and �64,280.

As anticipation builds for the Kings of Tallinn 2024, Christer Larsson, OlyBet Group Poker Director, expressed confidence in the event's ability to surpass previous successes. Larsson stated, "Crushing the guarantee is our forte, and players will keep pushing for more, higher, and better. Previous years have proved that the Kings of Tallinn festival is recognised and respected among the world's top players, but amateurs also enjoy it. We expect many participants in the coming events."
