CNP Winamax Grand Final Expects 3,000 Entrants

More than 3,000 registrations are expected for the main event of the CNP Winamax Grand Final this November. The festival will run from 12 to 23 November at Casino Gran Madrid Torrelodones. Organizers are preparing for what could be the largest final in the 15-year history of the Spanish circuit.

Last year's 550 euro main event drew a record 2,684 registrations. This year's target is even higher. More than 1,200 tickets have already been handed out through LAROUSH LIVE promotions, and new qualifiers will be held through Winamax's online satellites.

The point organizers stress most is that players should not leave registration until the last minute. Players who complete their registration before sitting down at a table will help reduce waiting time in the crowd.

The 550 euro main event starts on 18 November, and six starting flights are planned for players. On 19 November there is a 300 euro Low Cost flight, and on 21 November there is the faster-paced Day 1F. To manage the crowd, Day 2 will be split into two sessions on 21 November. All players will reconvene for Day 3 on 22 November, and the champion will be known the following day.

The casino is preparing 126 tables. Of these, 76 will be in the French Room, where high interest is expected. A special table for television broadcast will be set up in the Poker Room. From 19 November, 35 more tables will be added at Mandalay Gardens. A dedicated Player Lounge will also open for players.
