Berlin Cup draws more than 900 players
If you need any kind of indication about how big this weekend's EPT Berlin main event will be, take a look at the Berlin Cup.
More than 900 players showed up for this week's €1,100 Berlin Cup and built a prize pool that will pay €180,000 to the winner. Nearly half of those players are German, but the rest came from all over the world to fight or the €883,670.
If you need some idea how much bigger this is than expected, this fact should help: the guarantee for the Berlin Cup was €500,000
It bodes well for the EPT Berlin main event starting on Sunday. The EPT has an eleven-day poker festival at the Grand Hyatt and Spielbank Berlin.
In all, the EPT plays to award more than €10 million in prizes over the next two weeks.

Hmm, i thing is nice to pay €1,100 and have chance to win €180.000 :X if you're a good player you can loan that €1,100 from friends or bank and win that 180K but if you lose that €1,100 is not good for you
