EPT (European Poker Tour), the most prestigious poker tour with the biggest prize pool and the largest number of participants will trust again in Fournier Playing Cards for Season 6, which starts on August, 18th in Kiev (Ukraine).

EPT Season Five generated a total prize pool of almost €55 million (approx $77 million USD) with 7,980 players from 97 countries of which 3,077 were PokerStars players. The four richest prize pools available in poker tournaments outside the United States last ; Monte Carlo ($12.3M USD); San Remo ($7.5M USD); and Barcelona (7M USD).
John Duthie, CEO of EPT said recently: "We have set very high standards and we aim to improve on this still further in Season Six - with new additions to the schedule as well as a richer mix of games and buy-ins to cater for more players". All of them will play with Fournier 100% Plastic Cards, to many, the finest cards in the world due to their durability, resistance, flexibility and unique shufflling.
