Ninety Nine — MERKUR Spielbank Hannover (Sundays except the first of the month)
11 Oct – 31 Dec 2026 · MERKUR Spielbank Hannover, Germany
Ninety Nine is Hannover's regular Sunday tournament, running on the second, third, fourth and fifth Sunday of each month at 17:00. The name is the cost: €90 plus €9 Taxe, with two re-entries.
It is the state's most frequent affordable tournament. Where the Monday Turbo Challenge asks €220 and the first-Sunday progressive knockout €165, Ninety Nine keeps the Sunday field open to €99 players three or four times a month, with two re-entries softening a bad start.
A No Limit Hold'em cash game runs after the tournament finishes, which is useful because on tournament days the cash tables otherwise open late and the floorman works from a waiting list. Seating on normal days is from 18:45 on the poker floor with no waiting list. Minimum age in Lower Saxony is 21, and the door requires a passport or national ID card.
