ept

Ept most commonly refers to the European Poker Tour (EPT), a series of live poker tournaments organized by PokerStars. The tour began in 2004 and quickly became one of the largest and most prestigious circuits in competitive poker. It visited major European cities, including Barcelona, Vienna, Monte Carlo, Prague, and London, among others, attracting thousands of players and sizable prize pools.

Each stop typically featured a main event, along with multiple side events. The main event drew both amateur and professional players, often with fields of hundreds or thousands of entrants and prize pools reaching into the millions of euros. Final tables were broadcast on poker television programs and online platforms, contributing to the growth of televised poker and online coverage.

Many players who achieved success on the EPT went on to win other major tournaments, and the tour helped launch lesser-known players into the spotlight. The EPT played a significant role in the poker boom of the 2000s and helped popularize live tournament poker across Europe.

Beyond this primary meaning, Ept as an acronym may refer to other organizations or terms in different fields. However, the European Poker Tour is the best-known usage, and context usually clarifies which meaning is intended.
