In late October and early November, during the Malta Poker Festival, the Portomaso Casino in St. Julian's will host juicy high-stakes cash games in NLH and PLO formats. Interested players can directly get in touch at [email protected].  I am not planning to go to the Malta Poker Festival. Already too many things are going on during October for me to implement this stop on my travel route but I am glad to point out two partner highlights happening during this festival.   
Every year a very particular trip stands out in THE-ROUNDER.net agenda: an Alpine rendez-vous in the mountains for great poker action in a charming poker room surrounded by peaks, hiking trails and ski resorts. The Seefeld Casino will host a winter CAPT stop in late January 2025.
CAPT Seefeld will take place from 20th January to 2nd February 2025. 
Two cool European live poker promoters are cooking something together for early September. For the regs of THE-ROUNDER.net, the VAMOS POKER TOUR and THE FESTIVAL SERIES should be names that ring a bell. If not, there is plenty of info available in the POKER TRIPS section.
The two brands are perfectly aligning two of their events making for a packed 12-day live poker schedule in one of the hottest poker spots in Europe. This is a summary with useful info links to prepare the trip and follow the action during the festivals. 
For more than a decade now, the Circuido Nacional de Poker has been a major actor of the Spanish live poker scene and they are entering their 12th season this year.
The 2024 circuit comes with five stops in some of the best poker rooms in Spain and offers opportunities to visit some of the most amazingly beautiful cities in the South of Europe. 
The Festival Series 2024 adventure will end where the last two seasons ended: at Bratislava's Banco Casino. It's a great time to enjoy the charms of the Slovak capital with the winter vibe slowly kicking in. Find out more about this thrilling poker trip by the Danube on the OFFICIAL WEBSITE. Hospitality package offers will be released soon and you can already get in touch to book your accommodation.

The 2024 Malta Vamos Poker Tour stop is in the books after almost a week of poker action at Portomaso casino in St. Julian's.

The Mare*GO is on its way back to where it came from and off to new solidarity missions. Thanks to everybody linked to the project!
Belgium is the place where I will cool off after three months spent in Las Vegas. From Nevada to Belgium over The Netherlands and Luxembourg after my last Belgian visit in spring. All Wallonia Series of Poker [ WaSOP ] info links are available in this post.
I'm thrilled about what's coming up in September! I'm going back to Malta. For two festivals over two weeks. I will spend most of the month on the warm Mediterranean island to attend the VAMOS POKER TOUR and THE FESTIVAL SERIES. Head to the POKER TRIPS section for more details and join the ride for 12 full days of non-stop poker, gambling, gaming and hospitality entertainment. But before that, clickers will get their share of clicking with the 70-tournament online leg of THE FESTIVAL ONLINE this August. 
St. Julian’s is a seaside town in Malta known for its beautiful beaches and lively atmosphere. Balluta Bay, with its rocky stretch and promenade full of food and beverage options, is a highlight. The streets of Paceville, near St. George’s Bay Beach, are lined with bars and nightclubs. In Spinola Bay, you can admire traditional fishing boats and visit Spinola Palace, a baroque mansion with a distinctive carved clock on its facade. Portomaso Bay boasts a marina, luxury boutiques, and casinos.
Quand ça commence à sentir le sapin, il est crucial d'ajuster sa stratégie postflop à faible profondeur de stack. À ce stade, la marge d'erreur est faible et chaque move doit être calculé avec précision. Connaître les tendances de ses adversaires et ajuster son niveaux d'agressivité en conséquence permet de garder le contrôle et de protéger son tapis. 
After collaborating during a few weeks over the 2024 poker summer, we parted in Las Vegas and Faraz left to enjoy some quality time with his family away from the Strip and cards before getting back to work in order to get ready for his upcoming poker competition in Florida.
An interesting spot he played in last year's 3.5k Hard Rock Main Event serves the purpose of sharing thoughts with the JakaCoaching.com community for the sake of preparation. Read more in the post below. 
The 4th deployment of 2024 in June was a tough one. Emotionally, physically ... but also mechanically and technically speaking.
Summer is a very busy time in the Mediterranean with many migrants to take advantage of better weather to cross to Europe. More crossing attempts inevitably results in more distress situations with more lives being at risk every day. Mare*GO had been maintained very well and the crews carefully prepared but the 120-year old yellow lady shows signs of fatigue and stress that render some of our rescue missions in the open sea difficult and potentially dangerous. 
This is an English version of an article originally published in German for PokerFirma.com.
From Rozvadov via the Spanish Mediterranean coast to Portugal and over to Panama before the Grand Final in Madrid with 888poker - CNP is busy working on exciting live poker projects for the second half of 2024.
The CNP poker brand and the Laroush Events organisation behind it have a great European schedule to come for the rest of 2024 and there are news about a new Latin American project for November.
It's that time of the year again. Poker summer is coming to an end... at least my Las Vegas part of it. There will be more poker for me throughout the rest of summer but it will be on the European side. Belgium to start with, a few days after flying from Las Vegas to Amseterdam and Malta later in early September. More trips might be added to the list but have repeatedly told me that one has to sleep and take care of oneself and see loved ones sometimes... so I will also try that a bit during August. Might be worth it... :-)
The VAMOS POKER TOUR (VPT) teams up with THE FESTIVAL SERIES in September for a combined 2-headed poker festival dragon to slay between 4th and 15th September.
The full schedule has just been released. Stay tuned under the MALTA tag of the blog for updates. 
Time to fly to Europe soon for a series of exciting poker festivals across the continent. Details are being updated in the POKER TRIPS section over these weeks and it's always possible to join the WHATSAPP community for weekly poker travel inspiration.
At the end of this U.S. trip, more than 2.000 photo impressions will have been added to my archive. Most of them are being published for PokerFirma.com. All of them are available for viewing in the Flickr archive below. Prepare a tea, sit back and enjoy the views. 
The capital of Slovakia will be the host of a series of international poker events over the months of July and August. I might attend one of them during later stages of this summer. As usual, all details are available on our POKERTURNIERE.LIVE portal for fellow traveling poker players.  The last minute summer poker rentals have more or less been taken care of at this stage and we are navigating full steam ahead towards the end of another extended stay in Las Vegas. What started as a slow year on the Nevada real estate market, turned into a pretty busy spring and summer with properties coming back on the market and buyers being out for shopping again. Many new rental options are also available for mid-term and long-term stays? Tired of the ridiculously overpriced Strip life? Planning a long grind in Las Vegas over the coming months? Or maybe, you are even thinking about investing in Sin City...  |
