WPO Bratislava fiesta schedule
Incredible, but true: despite the huge mess with the two previous editions, the Crowne Plaza hotel in Bratislava still invited us back. Because yes: the WPO is not just a poker tournament. All week long, your competitive instincts will be put to the test on every floor of the hotel...
All the extra-poker activities of the WPO Bratislava are free and accessible by buy-in directly within the Crowne Plaza, with the exception of the Closing Party, which will take place in a nearby establishment and will not require registration.
Wednesday at 21:00 - Pingathlon
One of last year's great novelties, this twisted and crazy concept is back. The rules are very simple - they're the same as for table tennis... except that you'll be using everything but a racket! And the tables are, let's just say, a bit special... You'd think you were at the Olympics! [Buy-in at the Crowne Plaza from 19:00].
Thursday at 19:00 - Winamax Beer Pong Open
Gus Hansen himself is quoted as saying: "If I don't win the WSOP Main Event one day, then I'll settle for the Winamax Beer Pong Open." Considered by some to be the real Main Event of the Winamax live festivals, this is THE event not to be missed this week. In teams of two, demonstrate flawless precision, try to keep your cool, and maybe you'll end up with the festival's most coveted title... [Registration at the Crowne Plaza from 17:00].
Friday at 21:00 - The Grand Quiz
They're making a comeback... after taking a short break for the 2023 edition. The Grand Quiz is back, and it's a salvo of questions (not always very intelligent) on a whole range of subjects (not always poker-related) that you answer as a team. A word of advice: choose your partners carefully! [Registration at the Crowne Plaza at kick-off time].
Saturday at 21:00 - Blind Test
Your favourite songs, the world's greatest hits, and a few local tunes to keep you on your toes: that's the playlist that awaits you in the Blind Test, where your vital knowledge and speed will be put to the test. Ready to show off your musical culture? [Registration at the Crowne Plaza at kick-off time].
Sunday - Closing Party
Once the Main Event is over, we'll see you at Manifest, an atmospheric bar transformed into a nightclub for the evening, just a stone's throw from the Crowne Casino, for one (million) last drink(s), one last dance, or one last bad beat to tell as you scream next to the speakers.
Every evening - Midnight Deglingos
We know some people who come just for these events. For a €10 fee, you can try your luck at a flash Omaha game. No need to revise your strategy on the Midnight Deglingos: everyone will be all-in from the first hand. But that doesn't stop the jackpots from going way, way up... and the decibels too. [Registration at the Crowne Plaza at kick-off time].
