888poker LIVE Tour Heads to Glasgow For the First Time Ever
Table Of Contents
Head to the Grosvenor Casino Merchant City in Glasgow, Scotland, from March 13 if you want to be part of history. March 13 is the date of the opening day of the 2025 888poker LIVE Glasgow festival, marking the first time the popular tour has stopped off in Glasgow.
The 11-day festival will see grinders from the United kingdom and further afield battle it out at 888poker-branded felts across several tournaments, including the ￡250,000 guaranteed ￡888 buy-in Glasgow Main Event.
￡250,000 Guaranteed 888poker LIVE Glasgow Main Event
Although every tournament on the festival's schedule is eagerly anticipated, the Main Event is the one tournament that everyone traveling to Glasgow wants to win. The ￡888 buy-in tournament features six flights, including turbo-structured Day 1E and Day 1F; the latter play to a 20-minute blind structure instead of 40 minutes.
Main Event players start their quest for glory with 30,000 chips but can re-enter as many times as their bankroll allows before the start of Day 2 at 5:00 p.m. GMT on March 22. 888poker has placed a ￡250,000 guarantee on the Main Event's prize pool, but it should have no issues smashing through that sum.
