2022 EPT Monte Carlo

The European Poker Tour (EPT) returns to the world-famous Monte-Carlo Casino for the first time since 2019 and PokerNews�� live reporting team will be on the ground from April 28 through to May 7, bringing you live and exclusive updates from six of the schedule��s biggest events.

Our coverage starts with the �10,200 Mystery Bounty and �1,100 FPS Main Event from April 28.The FPS Monte Carlo Main Event last ran in 2016 and saw Stephane Dossetto defeat Niall Farrell heads-up for the title. Dossetto walked away with �218,000 ($245,958) that day, and we would expect similar numbers on the FPS�� long-awaited return.

PokerNews is also bringing you all the action from the �100,000 Super High Roller, �50,000 No-Limit Hold��em, and the �25,000 High Roller events. Of course, no EPT coverage would be complete without the �5,300 Main Event.

Former EPT Monte Carlo Main Event Champions

The past winners of the EPT Monte-Carlo Main Event read like a who��s who of the poker world. Some of the biggest-ever EPT prizes stem from this glamorous stop and we expect some big numbers for the Main Event��s long-awaited return.

Manig Loeser is the reigning EPT Monte-Carlo Main Event champion, having outlasted 921 opponents in 2019. Loeser reeled in a �603,777 payout on that occasion. Everything was shaping up for the 2020 edition to be huge, but the COVID-19 pandemic put paid to those plans, and again in 2021. Players are itching to return to the iconic Monte-Carlo Casino, and we cannot wait to be in the thick of it either.
