Pick 3 EPT Barcelona 2026 rules

How it works

  • Pick three players from our list of 2026 EPT Barcelona Main Event players. 
  • Your players earn one point for every €1 they win in official EPT Barcelona Main Event prize money. 
  • Your score is the combined points total of your three players. 
  • The team with the highest combined points total wins an $8K package to play the 2026 EPT Prague Main Event in December.

Entry details

  • Entry is free — you must be 18 years of age or older at the time of entry.
  • You must be a registered PokerOrg member to play. It’s free to become an Org member. 
  • One entry per PokerOrg member.

Deadline to pick or change your team

  • Monday, August 24, at 12 noon CEST.
  • You can edit your team at any time until the deadline.

Choosing your team

  • Pick any three players from the official list (we’ll be updating it regularly as more names are confirmed, right up until the deadline at the start of play on Day 2 of the Main Event).
  • Players are not guaranteed to play – pick at your own risk!
  • There are no budget limits.
  • Each player’s official EPT Barcelona Main Event prize money will count toward your score at one point per €1 won.
  • Players who don’t cash score 0 points.

Leaderboard

  • As the Main Event progresses, we’ll update a leaderboard showing team standings. 
  • If a player is still in the tournament, they will be given a projected score based on the official payout for their current position in the standings.
  • Projected scores are for leaderboard purposes only; final scores are based solely on official Main Event prize money won.
  • Once a player is eliminated, their final points total will be locked in.

Prizes

  • 1st place: An $8K package to the 2026 EPT Prague Main Event, including Main Event entry, flights and accommodation.
  • 2nd-10th: PokerOrg merch.

Tiebreaker

  • In the event of a tie for first place, the tiebreaker question will determine the winner. The closest answer wins: “How many chips will the EPT Barcelona Main Event chip leader have at the end of Day 2?"
  • If entrants are still tied, a random draw will determine the winner.

Winner contact & claim rules

  • We will contact the potential winner via the contact information provided (email or phone).
  • The winner will have 7 days to respond from the time of notification.
  • If we do not receive a response within that window, the prize will be offered to the next-highest eligible finisher.
  • Any alternate winner will have 24 hours to respond, and failure to respond will result in forfeiture of the prize and selection of the next winner, and so on.
  • It is your responsibility to ensure your contact details are accurate and that you can receive messages (including checking spam folders).
