The Vamos Poker Tour has been running at the Palms Royale Casino in Sofia since November 2. All of the starting days for the €350 Main Event are now complete. Champions have also been crowned in three more side events: the €150 Open Face Chinese Poker (Progressive), the €150 Deepstack and the €120 Turbo Full KO (€100 KO).
The organizers in Sofia have every reason to be happy with this week’s turnout. The €700 High Roller, the €150 Open Face Chinese Poker and the €150 Deepstack all set new records.

Day 1D added another 258 entries, Day 1E had 59, and the Day 1F Turbo finished with 91.
That puts the €350 VPT Sofia Main Event at 823 total entries, playing for a €200,000 guaranteed prize pool. Bulgaria’s Hristo Petrov bagged the chip lead on Day 1A and is still on top with 697,000 chips.
