The second Diamond Poker Series PLO Grand Slam at Albania's Arena Casino Tirana is set to take place in 2025 after a successful event in November that produced some of the biggest PLO fields in European history.

PokerNewswill be on-site for the €5 million guaranteed festival running Jan. 23-30 and will be providing live updates for the €5,000 Opener and €10,000 PLO Grand Slam Championship.

The PLO Grand Slam festival follows a series last month that included a €10,300 PLO Grand Slam Championship that produced a prize pool of €1.2 million.

There were successful side events as well, including a €5,000 Opener with 210 entries, the biggest field at that buy-in level in European history, and had more than 140 unique players from 36 countries.

The next festival will have even more action, with highlights including a $2,500 Five-Card Bounty Welcome Event with a €300,000 guarantee, a €5,000 buy-in event with a €1 million guarantee.

There are plenty of other big guarantees, such as a €10,000 buy-in guaranteed event, a €10,000 Progressive Bounty event with a €500,000 guarantee and a €25,000 High Roller with a €500,000 guarantee.

Some events offer special features. For example, the two players with the most bullets in the €5,000 Day 1a Opener will each win a €10,000 Championship ticket.

There will also be an Early Bird bonus that will see players who register before the start of play getting a 10% increase to their starting stack, as well as a 5% bonus for players who register during the first level of play.

Like the previous stop, the hotel will be complimentary for all €5,000 and €10,000 players. Players who want to stay on-site at the venue should book quickly because rooms are filling up fast.

There will be a VIP terminal service available for all event participants. A driver will wait for players near the "Arena Casino Tournament" sign at the airport.

Anonymous Winner in November

Who won last month's €10,300 PLO Grand Slam Championship? That's a good question, as the winner only went by the alias "Benjamin N" and asked to remain anonymous. The same was true for runner-up "Phil Ejri" as both players were part of a four-way chop that also included Spain's Lautaro Guerra and Greece's Nikolaos Lampropoulos.
