Rounders Poker Festival · Rotterdam

Rounders 2026 NLH Main Event — EUR 270 + EUR 30, EUR 250,000 guaranteed

13 – 19 Dec 2026 · Holland Casino Rotterdam, Netherlands

€300Main event buy-in
€250,000Guaranteed

The Rounders Poker Festival Main Event costs EUR 270 plus a EUR 30 service fee and guarantees EUR 250,000. Five Day 1 flights run between 13 and 17 December 2026 at Holland Casino Rotterdam, with Day 2 on 18 December and the final on Saturday 19 December.

The flights

Day 1A opens on Sunday 13 December at 13:00. Day 1B follows on Wednesday 16 December at 12:30 and Day 1C, a turbo, the same evening at 19:00. Day 1D is on Thursday 17 December at 12:30 with Day 1E, also a turbo, at 19:00. Survivors return for Day 2 on Friday 18 December at 12:30, and the Day 3 final plays out from 14:00 on Saturday 19 December.

Re-entry and the bubble

Holland Casino states that the Main Event has unlimited re-entry, so a player can fire more than once within a flight and across flights. Each Day 1 plays down to 12.5 per cent of its field, and the venue states that everyone who reaches Day 2 is already in the money — which makes the late levels of a Day 1 flight the real bubble rather than Day 2 itself.

What you actually pay

EUR 270 as the buy-in and EUR 30 as the service fee, both charged on entry, so EUR 300 leaves your pocket per bullet. The EUR 250,000 figure is a guaranteed minimum prizepool, not a projection: if entries fall short, Holland Casino tops it up.

Around it

The same festival carries a EUR 170 + EUR 30 Single Re-entry with EUR 100,000 guaranteed over four flights from 11 December, a EUR 500 + EUR 50 High Roller on 18-19 December, progressive and mystery bounty events, and nightly hyper turbos at EUR 100 + EUR 20.

The Netherlands licenses online poker through the Kansspelautoriteit under the Remote Gambling Act, and only licensed operators may serve Dutch residents. GGPoker names the Netherlands as a Restricted Jurisdiction in its own terms, so we no longer list it here. The minimum age is 18 (24 for some products). This is general information, not legal advice.
