Casino Barcelona Aims to Break Records with 2018 CEP Kickoff


Casino Barcelona is gearing up to break its own record with the 2018 edition of the Campeonato de España de Poker (CEP). The 2017 edition saw a total of 776 players, with Philippe Noble emerging as the champion. This year, the inclusion of a third day 1C aims to attract nearly 1,000 players, setting the stage for an even more impressive turnout.

The main event will feature a 500€ buy-in, spanning three days with 30,000 starting points. The event is scheduled from February 28 to March 4, 2018, making it a must-attend for poker enthusiasts. The Mini CEP, a two-day event, had 259 participants in 2017 and will offer a buy-in of 180€+ 20€. Additionally, the Casino Barcelona will host freerolls and supersatellites, guaranteeing 30 spots for the Main Event. Casinobarcelona.es, the official sponsor, will provide online satellites starting from 0€.

The CEP will celebrate its 13th edition in 2018, with a rich history featuring notable players such as Francisco “Pakito” López, Javier “Flacokanu” Martínez, Fernando “Kasparoso” Martín, Javier “Pizu” Piazuelo, Axier Otxoa, Manel Cuberos, Cayetano García, Jordi Martínez, Lirong Hu Yu, and José María Echevarne.

I've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
