TOP 5 ПРИЧИН ПОЕХАТЬ НА RPT МИНСК
1️⃣✅ BIG POKER in MINSK — $1,000,000 GUARANTEED PRIZE
As you already understood, we plan to break into the new poker season on a high note. Russian Poker Tour Prime is no longer an ordinary RPT series, but a more prestigious stage with increased buy-ins, guarantees and an updated tournament schedule. Despite everything, the series will remain just as cozy, cozy and accessible to most players and poker fans.

In addition to cool tournaments with big prizes, we will traditionally prepare an extensive entertainment program for you, and the poker festival itself will again stretch for 12 days. Poker and entertainment are the perfect combination that we have worked out over more than 15 years of holding poker series. RPT Prime will be no exception, all guests of the series will enjoy our best entertainment, including your favorite parties in night clubs and karaoke.

2️⃣✅ NEW BUY-INS, SCHEDULE and INCREASE IN PRIZE ZONE
The first thing that catches your eye is the million-dollar guarantee and the jumped buy-ins in many tournaments. For example, the Main Event will have a buy-in of $690 and a guarantee of $240,000, and your favorite Belarus PKO Championship has an entry fee of $240, while the guarantee has doubled to $100,000. The RPT300 tournament, which was tested as part of the Grand Final, also remains on the schedule; it will be held in parallel with the Russian Poker Open TV Event, without overlapping with it. There will also be a newcomer - the SuperHighrollers Event with a buy-in of $1,800 for real grinders.

As we promised, starting from the new year, the prize zone in RPT tournaments will be increased: in knockout tournaments - up to 12%, in all multi-day tournaments, including the Main Event - up to 14%. The guarantees of almost all tournaments on the schedule have increased significantly, and the structures and formats have been adjusted for the better at your requests.

You can easily win one or even several tickets to the key tournaments of the series in online satellites, where a total of more than 100 tickets and participant packages will be raffled off in the coming month. Available stages for the Main and High Roller tournament will also remain on the schedule.

3️⃣✅ THE BEST ATMOSPHERE, EXCELLENT ROSTERS and TV BROADCASTS (tournaments and cash)
An impressive prize pool of $1,000,000 will undoubtedly attract many new players. The Pokerstyle Events series always have a warm and friendly atmosphere, most participants come in pursuit of new experience and emotions, as well as just to have a great time. We try to maintain this perfect balance, even within the RPT Prime, entry fees will remain affordable for most poker fans, while the prize money will be much higher. All the main tournaments, just like last time, will be held in the 9-max format.

Right now you can soak up the RPT atmosphere by going to the Russian Poker Tour Instagram account in the stories section. There are a lot of interesting materials, many of which remain behind the scenes.

Traditionally, within the February series, several key tournaments will be held under TV broadcast. For some players, getting to the TV table is a real poker dream, at RPT Prime everyone has a chance to get to the TV table. But that's not all, we will also hold several broadcasts of cash games, Omaha and Texas at medium limits ($5/5 - $5/10). We are looking for bright and emotional players who will be interesting to watch for thousands of poker fans. If you want to get to the TV table for a cash battle, contact our administrator.

4️⃣✅ LOW EXPENSES
Minsk remains one of the most affordable cities to visit. Prices for flights to Minsk from many CIS cities are currently at their lowest level since we last observed them. A roundtrip ticket from Moscow costs about $100, from St. Petersburg — around $140, and the Lastochka express train is even cheaper.

As for the cost of living in Minsk — the prices will also pleasantly surprise you. A luxury 5⭐️ hotel at the venue is always less than $100 for two, a 4⭐️ hotel within walking distance — about $60. There are a huge number of apartments nearby starting from $15 — an excellent choice for large groups, and taxis in Minsk are quite inexpensive. Prices for food are also quite low, and in cafes and restaurants the prices are two to three times cheaper than in Moscow.

5️⃣✅ NO 13% TAX on PRIZE MONEY and ENTERTAINMENT
When organizing tournaments within the walls of a casino, we pay a tax for each individual poker table so as not to withhold a 13% tax from your prize money. Yes, paying a tax on such a number of tables is very expensive for us as organizers, but we know that it is better for our guests.

A trip to a poker series is a great rest and recharge for most of our players. Of course, what happens at the poker tables is the most important part of any trip to a poker series, but what can you do besides casinos and poker? Minsk has a fairly wide selection of entertainment for every taste. Traditionally, we organize karting, karaoke and mafia tournaments with valuable prizes for our guests, as well as a signature RPT party in the best nightlife venue in Minsk. As always, there will be a lot of entertainment as part of the future RPT Prime.
TOP 5 ПРИЧИН ПОЕХАТЬ НА RPT МИНСК
РАСПИСАНИЕ ТУРНИРОВ. 05 - 14 февраля 2022 года
TOP 7 ТУРНИРОВ
1️⃣ RPT MAIN EVENT $170/$690. $240,000 guaranteed. 📺 Broadcast
Stack 15,000/75,000, levels of 25/30 and 40 minutes.

The same accessible Main Event format. You can enter the Main Event directly for $690, receiving a starting stack of 75,000 chips, or you can try to get into Day 1A of the Main Event for just $170 through five stages - Stage A, B, C, D and E. Their participants receive 15,000 chips at the start and play up to 20% of the total number of entries into this stage. In other words, every fifth participant from each stage makes it to Day 1A of the Main Event with the stack that he managed to fill within this stage.

The Main Event winner usually gets more than $50,000, but given the new buy-in and the tournament guarantee increased to $240,000, the prize money for winning will be much higher this time. The optimal entry day is Day 1A, which includes most of the winners of online satellites and those who made it through the stages. Don't miss the opportunity to win tickets and packages to the Main in online satellites.

In December, the Main attracted 520 entries, and Dmitry Serdyukov became the winner, earning $53,000 in prize money! And in February, the prize money will be even bigger.

2️⃣ BELARUS KNOCKOUT CHAMPIONSHIP PKO $160+$80. $100,000 guaranteed. 📺 Broadcast
Stack 20,000, levels of 20/25 and 30 minutes.

A real favorite of RPT guests - a democratic event in the progressive knockout format with an excellent structure, a guarantee of $100,000 with a buy-in of only $240. Please note that this event has only 4 entry flights, stacks are not cumulative!

This is the largest event on the RPT schedule, which always collects more than 500 entries. Closer to the final table, the tournament turns into a race for big knockouts, and given the increase in buy-in, we expect record prize money. Many tickets can be won in online satellites on RPTBET.

At the Grand Final, this tournament was conquered by Vadim Matyuk, who received more than $14,000 in prize money for the victory. The prize money for a similar tournament in February will be much higher.

3️⃣ RUSSIAN POKER OPEN TV EVENT $390. $70,000 guaranteed. 📺 Broadcast
Stack 25,000, levels of 15/25 and 30 minutes.

The Russian Poker Open was a great favorite among the guests of the series and has been a part of the tournament schedule for a long time. It is a kind of dress rehearsal for the Main Event, a classic three-day tournament without knockouts, supported by large prize money and which will also be shown on TV. The buy-in is $390 with an impressive guarantee of $70,000, recommended for all fans and those tired of knockout tournaments.

Mikhail Ketlerov won a similar tournament live in February 2024, earning $21,200.

4️⃣ RPT300 KNOCKOUT BATTLE $210+$150. $75,000 guaranteed.
25,000 stack, 15/25 and 30 minute levels.

RPT300, which was tested during the Grand Final, is also on the schedule. A large-scale event in the classic knockout format with a buy-in of $360 and a fixed bounty of $150. It has three entry days, and just two knockouts turn the tournament into a virtual freeroll for you.

The previous similar tournament in December (though with a smaller buy-in) brought its winner Alexey Kazak $10,100 in prize money.

5️⃣ BATTLE OF POKEROK $260/$1,100. $100,000 guaranteed. 📺 Broadcast
Stack 75,000, levels of 35 and 40 minutes.

High Roller tournament, named after our new partners — poker room PokerOK. One of the most expensive and prestigious tournaments of the series will be held with a buy-in of $1,100 and a guarantee of $100,000, the final day will also be under the sights of the TV broadcast.

PokerOK is guaranteed to raffle off as many as 50 tickets at $1,100 each! The selection will be held in the room from January 17 to February 2 in the format of step satellites. The final qualifying satellites will be held on January 26 (30 tickets guaranteed to the Battle of PokerOK tournament) and February 2 (20 tickets guaranteed to the Battle of PokerOK tournament).

As with the Main, you can get into the PokerOK Battle through the stage at the series itself with a buy-in of only $260. Players in the stage receive 15,000 chips and play up to 20% of the total number of entries, after which they move on to the main Day 1 with their collected stacks. This tournament takes place during the day, given the TV broadcast and such a powerful online partner, we expect a large number of participants in this event in December, and with this, even more prize money.

This tournament always has a large five-digit sum for winning. For example, Ivan Sevastyanov earned $25,000 in prize money in a similar tournament in June.

6️⃣ SUPERHIGHROLLERS EVENT $1,800. $50,000 guaranteed. *New tournament
Stack 30,000, levels of 30 and 25 minutes.

The tournament will be played over two days, a large starting stack of 100,000 and smooth levels of 35 minutes - for a comfortable and measured game, in order to have time to demonstrate your poker skills to your opponents.

7️⃣ SUPERKNOCKOUT EVENT PKO $400+$200. $50,000 guaranteed.
30,000 stack, 30 and 25 minute levels.

One of the most popular side events is the $600 buy-in super knockout. At your request, we have returned it to the PKO format. The starting knockout for each knocked out player is $200, and then it increases. As the final table approaches, the knockouts become huge, sometimes exceeding the amount for the top 1.

Tornike Tchkoniya won one of these tournaments, earning $13,100 in prize money.
