Betsafe Fisherman's Challenge festival in 2020 had as many as 934 registrations. Although this year's selection period is shorter than last year, it is still expected that a similar number of participants will be sent to the tournament.
Betsafe Fisherman's Challenge 2021 – Changes
This year, the regulations of the Fisherman's Challenge festival have changed slightly and the Betsafe Fisherman's Challenge 2021 minimum buy-in will be €250. Last year, for the first time, a “High-roller” high buy-in tournament was held, which exceeded the organizers' expectations. This year, a decision was made to raise the minimum buy-in limit to €1250, which further increases the likelihood of a record prize pool.
It is also important to mention that the Fisherman's Challenge 2021 will stand out not only for its large number of participants, potentially record-breaking prize pool, but also for additional tournaments. If you won several €250 final stage tickets in the selection tournaments, you will be able to participate in two side tournaments with buy-ins of €125. Also, the Fisherman's Challenge 2021 will have a Ladies' tournament, with at least three tickets being given away just before the tournament starts.
