With two weeks to go before the third edition of the Everest Poker European Cup (EPEC) we now have the 204 lucky qualifiers who will be spending May 8th – 11th in the 5* Chia Laguna Resort on the island of Sardinia.

Very little research has been carried out on the size of live poker players! Everest Poker asked players for their required shirt size and the response suggests that poker players are, shall we say, ‘larger’ than average! 64% of the 204 players requested Large or Extra Large with a further 9% opting for XXL.

We also have entrants from Poland, Hungary and Finland for the first year, the French are best represented with 54 players.
