The conclusion to Season 5 of Europe’s biggest poker tour is on the horizon. On April 28, EPT Monte Carlo will get underway
at one of the most glamorous casinos in the world to wrap up another successful season.
Last year’s EPT Grand Final saw the poker world descend on Monte Carlo in search of victory and millions of Euros in prize
money. A record 842 players produced an €8,400,00 prize pool to make it the richest poker tournament in Europe.
PokerStars are giving you the chance to experience Monte Carlo by winning an $18,800 package to the upcoming EPT event. This
will include tournament buy-in, luxury accommodation, and $1,000 towards expenses so you receive the full PokerStars
EPT Monte Carlo experience. Satellite tournaments are running now from $2.22 or 111 FPP, and you can find
them under Events > EPT tab.
