How To Qualify for Unibet Open Marrakech

There are three main ways to secure a place in the Unibet Open Marrakech Main Event.

Qualify online through Unibet Poker
Go to Unibets poker client and search for Unibet Open in Tournaments Sections, you'll find qualification opportunities ranging from freerolls and lower cost steps to weekly finals awarding full Main Event packages.
To find the available tournaments:
1. Open the Unibet Poker software
2. Select Tournaments
3. Open Full Schedule
4. Filter the tournament type by Unibet Open
Unibet states that qualifier packages can include the Main Event buy in, four nights of accommodation, money towards travel expenses, breakfast and dinner. The precise contents may differ between qualifiers, so players should check the individual tournament information before registering.

Play the live Main Event satellites
Players travelling to Marrakech without an entry can also qualify at the venue.
Several 2,000 MAD satellites are scheduled before and during the Main Event starting flights.
Each of these tournaments is listed with a target prize value of 140,000 MAD, representing multiple Main Event entries depending on attendance and the final prize structure.

What to Expect at Unibet Open Marrakech

The Unibet Open has built its reputation around more than the tournament itself. Since launching in 2007, the tour has combined recreational friendly poker with carefully selected European and international destinations. 

Marrakech fits that approach particularly well. The Casino de Marrakech is located within the Es Saadi resort, placing players close to the hotel, restaurants, gardens, pools and other resort facilities throughout the eleven day programme.

With two Main Events, multiple qualification routes and buy ins covering several different levels, Unibet Open Marrakech offers players the option of making a short Main Event trip or turning the festival into an extended poker holiday.
