The Partouche Poker Tour (PPT), self-stylized “biggest poker tournament in Europe,” has informed players today that the prize pool for its Main Event is only €4.3m, not the €5m originally guaranteed.

The €8500 buy-in tournament, a culmination of many satellites and super satellites held across casinos in France, was originally sold as having a €5m guaranteed prize pool; that is, Partouche will ensure at least €5m is awarded in prizes regardless of the number of entries.

However, players in Cannes today for the fifth annual poker series have reported that the total prize pool is only €4.3m, not the €5m promised. 580 players entered, the same number as the previous year.

So rather than a guarantee, it was a target?

Wouldn't be surprised if ISPT goes the same route...provided they get going at all.
