On Wednesday, the organisers of the European Poker Tour announced that Vienna, Austria will replace Berlin, Germany as the sixth stop of the EPT Season 10. It was three years ago since the EPT made a stop in the capital of Austria and saw Germany's Michael Eiler winning the Main Event for €700,000 after besting a 578-strong field, including Team PokerStars Pro Daniel Negreanu on the final tab[...] Read more » EPT Returns to Vienna!

Awesome location. There's something magical about Vienna (not that I have been) in terms of reputation and all the historical stuff that has happened there. So much culture and now some EPT as well - not a bad place to get knocked out early

Well you know what THAT means...... There should be a bunch of corresponding EPTLive daily freerolls on PokerStars,....in which I seem to do very well in for SOME reason...
It seems everytime there's an EPT tourney over there,....the freerolls show up on PokerStars...!

One or two months before the Event in Vienna will be more poker rooms running freerolls for EPT,like Party Poker,Unibet and from iPoker Network.It seems to be free but is the same amount of work to be done to reach the Event.So in my opinion make the money for buy in where you are good and not in a freeroll where is one ticket a a prize

Excellent choice of location for the tournament. Vienna is a beautiful place in a beautiful old city. I am waiting to broadcast. 'll Be sure to watch! It is a pity that this year will not be the tournament in Berlin, but "PokerStars" try to make EPT more interesting. So new plase is good.

a very beautiful location to play poker but i cant see berlin being to happy with this decision. the last time they played in austria they had 578 players yet they still moved it to berlin. how do they pick these locations? it must go to the highest bidder or they would never have moved from vienna 3 years ago.

Go Vienna, sick place, watched some photos and videos about that place, I love it. Will consider to go there for vacation when I am rich enough or when I am old enough using my pension funds!!
Anyway the year is coming to an end and I hope that it finished with a good final table where there will be juicy actions and what not. Let's say like 5-6 of the top players of the moment.
Hope Daniel Negreanu makes it this year, he did not manage to win last year, hope he gets the crown, he had a good first part of the year, not a good one coming to the half way mark but near the finished he just won the WSOPE high roller and hope he finishes the year on top!
