Welcome, fellow poker enthusiasts, to the first day of the 2026 PartyPoker Tour London (Summer Edition).
It’s only a few weeks ago that the 2026 PartyPoker Tour Manchester wrapped up; it’s safe to say there hasn’t been a lot of rest for the PartyPoker crew. In fact, most of them arrived to Genting Casino Stratford, London, a few days ago, and immediately began the preperations for the fifth stop of the year.
Before Manchester, the PartyPoker Tour had its first two events abroad, as the circus touched Spanish soil. Seville and Madrid were both successes, and the number of entries were astonishingly high. That being said, London has always been the place where the biggest events have been in the UK, and there is no reason to suspect something different this time around. With 21 events on the schedule, it’s destined to be a busy nine days at Genting Casino Stratford (formerly known as Aspers).
The poker.pro live reporter Christoffer Karlén is on-site, ready to provide the live coverage of the £150 Mini Main Event for the first five days. Then, fellow colleague Richard Hayes will take over. Today, the live blog will kick off at 16:00, when cards are in the air for Day 1a of the aforementioned Mini Main Event. That will be the first starting-day flight out of a total of six. The tournament will play down to 15% of the field, and the survivors will all be in the money and bag their chips for Day 2 (July 8, 18:00).
Today’s schedule also features two exciting side events. The £60 poker.pro PL Sviten will surely bring alot of action; in fact, there probobly aren’t any other poker disciplines that are as intense as this Five-card Draw/PLO Frankenstein of a game. Then, it’s also the £60 PLO Masters Saturday Party Madness Courchevel Bounty. Perhaps the founder of the PLO Masters, JJ Hazan, will be on-site as well.
All and all, it’s going to be a busy first day of the 2026 PartyPoker Tour London (Summer Edition). As previously mentioned, the live blog will focus on the Mini Main Event and the Main Event. That being said, keep a close eye on the “Results” tab, where all the side events results will be published. See you all at 16:00.
