EPT LOUTRAKI
EPT LOUTRAKI
The EPT makes its Greek debut with a stop in the popular seaside resort of Loutraki. Situated on the east coast of the Gulf of Corinth on the Peloponnese peninsula, this was once the ancient city of Thermae - loved by the Gods, and the first ever resort to be recorded in the annals of world history.
The EPT will take place at Club Hotel Casino Loutraki, one of the biggest casinos in Europe. The €4,400 Main Event runs November 15-20, 2011.
