Le Sporting Poker Room After a hiatus of three years, the PokerStars European Poker Tour (EPT) presented by Monte-Carlo Casino® has returned to the French Riviera. From April 28, 2022, some of the biggest names on the live poker circuit will be battling for glory at Monte-Carlo Sporting .
The first high stakes contest gets underway on the first day of the series and features a buy-in of €10,200. It is the first time the Mystery Bounty format will be used by PokerStars for a five figure buy-in while the operator has already hosted the latest craze in the world of live and online poker on previous EPT stops.
From each buy-in, €4,700 will go towards the cash prize pool while €5,000 are allocated to the bounty prize pool. The Mystery Bounties will commence once the tournament has reached the money and all players still in contention when the cash bubble has burst will receive a Mystery Bounty token. For each opponent eliminated, the winner will collect the respective token and can then draw an envelope to determine their bounty prize.
Day 1 of the €10,200 Mystery Bounty is scheduled to kick off at 8pm local time and eight levels of 30 minutes each are foreseen on the first of two tournament days. A maximum of two entries are allowed and the late registration is open until the end of level ten.
All participants receive 100,000 in chips and the first two levels feature blinds of 500-1,000 with a big blind ante of 1,000. Four sets of duplicate levels set the pace for Day 1 while the action then recommences the following day at 12.30 local time. Last minute additions to the field will enter the fray with 20 big blinds in level 11.
High Roller regulars are expected to duke it out on the tables and the PokerNews live reporting team will be there to provide all the action from start to finish.
