Over the course of the next month, online poker giant PokerStars is set to give away Platinum Passes to the PokerStars Players No Limit Hold’em Championship (PSPC) 2020 via live stops in four European countries.

From mid-September to mid-October in the UK, Belgium, Slovenia and Russia, Platinum Passes will be given away at each location via a mix of standalone live satellites and special giveaways.

The PSPC is a live high-roller poker tournament that debuted in the Bahamas in January 2019.

With the tournament denominated in Euros, this time the Platinum Pass is valued at €26,500, providing entry to the €22,500 live event, accommodation, travel and €1250 towards expenses.
