Welcome to the first day of the 2019 PokerStars and Monte-Carlo?Casino European Poker Tour here in the Monte Carlo Bay Resort & Hotel in Monaco. The jam-packed schedule of 41 events kicks off today at 4 PM local time with the first day of the �1,100 No-Limit Hold��em Freezeout. Last year, this event attracted 183 players with Mazin Khoury walking away victorious with �177,510 and the PokerStars Spade.

Other notable players who reached the final table included Borge Sandsgaard, Marcin Chmielewski, and Dominique Terzian. Last year��s tournament was scheduled towards the end of the festival while it is now the opener in this year��s proceedings in the Salle des Etoiles at the Sporting Club. PokerNews will be covering a slew of the events here including the 10,300 NLHE Single Reentry later on today. Other events to follow include the �1,100 French National Championship, �100,000 EPT Super High Roller, �330 EPT Cup, and of course, the �5,300 EPT Main Event.

When the ��shuffle up and deal�� has been announced at 4 PM, players will be seated with a starting stack of 20,000 in chips. The tournament is scheduled to play 12 levels of 40 minutes each today and features a big blind ante which will come into play during the second level. A 20-minute break will take place after every three levels with a 75-minute dinner break after the sixth level of play. No reentries will be possible as it��s a freezeout and registration will close at the start of Level 9 which will be at approximately 10:55 PM.
