King’s DreamMaker 2027: Nine Tournaments, €50 Buy-ins and €1,000,000 Guaranteed

[King’s Resort Rozvadov] has announced the 2027 DreamMaker series. It has nine tournaments, buy-ins of just €50 or €100, and a combined guarantee of €1,000,000.

For a venue known for million-euro festivals with €590 and €1,150 Main Events, this is the cheapest serious entry point on the calendar. Here is what’s planned and how players can get the most out of it.

What Is the King’s DreamMaker?

DreamMaker is King’s low buy-in tournament format. It was built for recreational players who want a real shot at a big prize without a big bankroll.

The format launched in July 2026 as a series of €20 one-day tournaments. Each event had these features:

• €20,000 guaranteed
• 15,000 starting chips
• 30-minute levels
• Unlimited re-entries
• Late registration for 8 levels
• A €1,150 ticket to the King’s Million European Poker Championship (KMEPC) Super Main Event for the winner

Across the 2026 run, the series paid out €100,000 in prize money and handed out 20 KMEPC tickets.

King’s DreamMaker 2027 Schedule

For 2027, King’s has turned the format into a nine-event series running from January to September.

Event	Dates	Buy-in	Guarantee
DreamMaker Events 1–8	January to August 2027 (one event at a time)	€50	€100,000 each
DreamMaker Grand Final	September 6–13, 2027	€100	€200,000
Series total	January – September 2027	—	€1,000,000

Exact dates for the eight €50 events will be listed on the [official King’s DreamMaker page]. Prize pools at King’s are quoted after a tournament fee of 8–16%.

On top of the nine-event series, DreamMaker also becomes part of KMEPC 2027. A €355 DreamMaker runs from September 15–20, 2027, with €1,500,000 guaranteed.

How DreamMaker Fits into KMEPC 2027

The DreamMaker series is effectively a long road into King’s biggest festival of the year: the [King’s Million European Poker Championship 2027]. Here’s what is confirmed so far:

KMEPC 2027 key facts	Details
Festival guarantee	€15,000,000 (up from €10,000,000 in 2026)
€1,150 Super Main Event	€5,000,000 guaranteed
Super Main Event winner	€1,000,000 guaranteed first prize
€355 DreamMaker (part of KMEPC)	September 15–20, 2027, €1,500,000 guaranteed

Throughout the year, King’s festivals also award €3,500 KMEPC packages and €1,150 Super Main Event tickets. That gives low-stakes players several routes into the €5 million event without paying full price.

Other Affordable Million-Euro Events at King’s in 2027

DreamMaker is the cheapest option, but it isn’t the only affordable million-euro event on the 2027 calendar:

Event	Dates	Buy-in	Guarantee
Euro Poker Million (winter)	January 2027	€590	€3,000,000
King’s Million “24th Birthday Celebration”	June 15–29, 2027	€240	€1,000,000

Is the DreamMaker Worth Playing? Practical Insights

Look at the overlay potential

Low buy-in, high guarantee events don’t always fill. The 2026 €20 DreamMakers show this clearly.

The first event on July 10 had 300 total entries, including re-entries. At €20 each, that’s about €6,000 in buy-ins against a €20,000 guarantee. The August 16 event drew 533 entries and also fell short of its guarantee.

When a guarantee isn’t met, King’s pays the difference. That extra money, called an overlay, is pure added value for everyone in the field.

Run the numbers for 2027

To cover a €100,000 guarantee at €50, an event needs well over 2,000 entries once the fee is taken out. King’s will market the series heavily, so the fields will likely be bigger than in 2026. Even so, early events in quieter months like January and February are the most likely to produce overlays.

Plan your re-entries

Unlimited re-entry formats reward players who set a firm limit before they sit down. A common approach is to budget three bullets, which is €150 for a €50 event. That gives you real depth without chasing.

Combine it with a festival trip

Rozvadov is right on the German–Czech border. Most players drive in for a festival week, and the DreamMaker events usually sit alongside bigger festivals. That makes them an easy add-on: if you’re already there for a €240 or €590 Main Event, a €50 DreamMaker costs little and offers a big upside.

Why This Matters for European Poker

King’s Resort runs more guaranteed tournaments than almost any card room in the world. The DreamMaker series shows a clear strategy: bring new and low-stakes players in cheaply, then give them a pathway to the KMEPC.

It’s a similar idea to the live-event satellite ladders run by apps like ClubGG. You can read how those work in our [ClubGG Poker Review 2026]. And for another European festival that is growing fast, see our coverage of the [Battle of Malta 2027 tour].
