Dolce Vita Series Lands at Imperium Milan with €300K GTD Festival (28 Feb – 9 Mar)

Saturday, February 28th, 2:00pm

The Imperium Cardroom in Milan is preparing to host the Dolce Vita Series, a ten-day poker festival running 28 February to 9 March and featuring €300,000 in guaranteed prize pools across a packed schedule of tournaments.

Blending accessible buy-ins, mixed formats, and a headline Main Event, the series is shaping up to be one of the standout regional stops on the Italian calendar with Imperium continuing to establish itself as a regular destination for festival poker.

Paparazzi Kicks Off the Action

The opening days centre around the €30 Paparazzi €25K GTD, which plays out across multiple starting flights from 28 February through 2 March before culminating in a Final Day on Sunday evening.

With turbo and standard flights available, the structure provides plenty of flexibility for players looking to build a stack early in the series while keeping the buy-in extremely accessible.

Alongside Paparazzi, Omaha fans will find value in the Omaha Roma €10K GTD, appearing in milestone and turbo formats during the opening stretch.

Fellini €200K GTD Headlines the Festival

The focal point of the Dolce Vita Series is the Fellini €200K GTD, running across a deep multi-flight structure from 3–9 March.

Key highlights include:

  • Multiple Day 1 flights from 3–5 March
  • Continued qualification opportunities into Day 2
  • All-day entries on 6 March
  • Turbo qualification on 8 March
  • Final Day scheduled for 9 March

With a €250 buy-in for Day 2 entries, strong starting stacks, and extended levels, Fellini offers a classic festival Main Event feel while remaining within reach of a broad player pool.

High Roller and Side Event Action

For players seeking higher stakes action, the series also features the Mastroianni High Roller KO €50K GTD, including a multi-day format and Final Day on 6 March.

Additional side events round out the schedule, including:

  • Dolce Sviten
  • Anita Ekberg €15K GTD (Free 4 Queens format)
  • Continued Omaha and mixed-format options throughout the series

The variety ensures consistent table availability and alternative paths for players busting main events something Imperium festivals have become known for.

Imperium Continues Milan Momentum

The Dolce Vita Series represents another step in Imperium’s ongoing growth within the Italian live poker scene, combining strong guarantees with a relaxed, player-friendly schedule.

For locals and travelling players alike, the festival offers a solid mix of volume, value, and structure all inside one of Milan’s dedicated poker environments.

With Paparazzi already set to open proceedings and Fellini anchoring the week ahead, Imperium Milan is firmly on the radar heading into early March.

La Notte Degli Assi – One Plus One: It’s All In Now

Saturday, June 14th, 2:34pm

After a long 18 years, we’re still here, telling a new chapter of La Notte degli Assi — yet another one — born from Salvatore Vendemini’s brilliant idea to bring together the biggest names of the era into a single tournament. Since then, through countless editions across the globe, in every imaginable format and style, both the game of Texas Hold’em and this very event have evolved over time. Yet, throughout it all, La Notte degli Assi has not only kept pace with the changes, but often led them.

And today, it’s ready to write history once again — this time from Tirana — in a brand new location ready to be discovered, just like Malta, Cyprus, Montenegro, Ukraine, and Egypt were in years past. These are only a few of the places touched by the longest-running Italian poker event of all time.

18 years later, now of age, the event makes its debut at the Arena Casino in Albania, boasting a mind-blowing prize pool:
€2 MILLION GUARANTEED,
€1 MILLION GUARANTEED TO THE WINNER —
a life-changing first prize that will go to the one who rises above the rest over this thrilling week.

That winner will lift the heaviest trophy ever awarded in the history of La Notte degli Assi.

Welcome to Tirana.
We’re ready to tell this new chapter, brought to you by Imperium.

La Notte degli Assi One Plus One – MEET THE TOURNAMENT DIRECTOR!

Monday, June 2nd, 1:14pm

An old Italian commercial from the 1980s used to say, “For a big wall, you need a big brush.” And when it comes to a major event like 🌃La Notte degli Assi ONE Plus ONE🌃 — featuring a staggering €2 million guaranteed prize pool and €1 million guaranteed to the winner — Imperium Events had no doubt in choosing one of the most respected figures in the global poker industry: Sanaz Fattahi, Tournament Director — or more precisely, Tournament Operation Leader (TOL).

Of Canadian origin, Sanaz moved to Italy in the early 2000s. Almost by coincidence, she entered the poker world after playing a tournament where she criticized the dealer’s lack of professionalism and spontaneously decided to self-deal. At her table was Claudio Pagano, who noticed her talent and introduced her to the poker entertainment scene.

Thanks to her natural professionalism and passion, she quickly advanced within Pagano Events, later becoming a key figure in PokerStars live events across Italy and Europe, especially at the EPT. Her first roles as TD were at the IPT, but she also took part in prestigious events like the Bahamas, Tallinn, and the PartyPoker Millions finals in Nottingham.

In recent years, Sanaz has been working with the elite Triton Series, the most prestigious high-stakes poker circuit in the world. She joined the team at the invitation of longtime friend and collaborator Luca Vivaldi, now Live Events Senior Director at Triton. Today, Sanaz holds one of the highest-profile roles in live poker, co-leading tournament operations for Triton alongside Vivaldi.

When she’s not working, she resides in Rome with her partner Raffaele De Nicola — also a renowned TD, whose first experience as Tournament Director was precisely at La Notte degli Assi — and their son Wagner.

Now, Sanaz is ready for her first experience in Albania, having accepted the role of Tournament Director for 🌃La Notte degli Assi ONE Plus ONE🌃 at the Arena Casino in Tirana.

Here are her thoughts on this landmark event:

“I have a deep connection with La Notte degli Assi, which I directed back in the early 2010s in Campione. I still remember everything: Salvatore Vendemini, Claudio and Luca Pagano, and the sponsor ‘Chivas’ 🥃🤗. Coming back after 15 years is incredibly emotional — especially working with longtime friends like Giorgio Botter and internationally renowned TDs like Ferruccio Militello, both part of the Imperium Events team.”

“This event will offer players a brand-new Texas Hold’em experience — a millionaire dream with a €1,150 buy-in. I expect many Italians, many Albanians living in Italy, and above all, players from all over Europe. This could truly become a historic moment in the world of poker. What matters most is harmony within the team: respecting the staff and being respected in return. At the end of the day, whether we have 20, 1,000, or 10,000 players — if the tournament runs smoothly, I’m happy! See you in Tirana from June 14 to 24!”
