Hamburg gets a festival weekend: Monster Pokertour 2026 set for 6–8 November at Casino Schenefeld
Casino Schenefeld has put its Monster Pokertour on sale for the weekend of 6 to 8 November 2026. The main event costs 500 euros plus a 50-euro fee, runs two starting flights capped at 110 players each, and gives 50,000 chips on 30-minute levels — an unusually slow structure at that price in Germany. A 220-euro Mystery Monster Hyperturbo closes the Sunday.
Casino Schenefeld, the Hamburg-area room that already deals the weekly Sunday Monster Stack, has opened online sales for the 2026 edition of its Monster Pokertour.
The main event has two starting flights, Friday 6 November and Saturday 7 November, both beginning at 16:00, with the final day on Sunday 8 November at 16:00. Entry is 500 euros plus a 50-euro fee. Players receive 50,000 chips, levels last 30 minutes on the starting days and 40 minutes on the final day, and late registration and unlimited re-entry each run for ten levels. Each flight is capped at 110 entrants, and the casino says the flights are played until fifteen per cent of the field has reached the money.
That combination — 50,000 chips on half-hour levels for 550 euros all in — is slower than German festivals at this buy-in usually offer, and the 110-seat cap per flight means the weekend has a hard ceiling on its field.
The Sunday evening carries a separate event, the Mystery Monster THNL Hyperturbo, at 18:00: 200 euros plus 20 for 30,000 chips on 15-minute levels, with eight levels of late registration and re-entry and no published cap. The casino runs it in the mystery bounty format.
Casino SH presents the tour as a grand re-opening event, though its own pages do not say what the venue is re-opening from, and we have not been able to verify a closure. Seats for each flight are sold through the group's online shop, with registration closing an hour before the start. Casino Schenefeld is at Industriestr. 1, just outside Hamburg.
For anyone who misses the festival, the same room's cheap mid-week option follows on 17 November: Double Chance, 100 euros plus 10, with a free rebuy up to level six included in the price.
