Next month is the EPT Grand Finale in Monte Carlo.

Last year Gavin Griffin took down the title and over $2.2 million. Aside from WSOPE, I believe this is the most prestigious tournament in Europe. I suspect the prize pool is going to increase a fair bit this year too, with poker growing in Europe, and Pokerstars running plenty of satellites.

Despite still enjoying my time around home, I just can’t miss this tournament. Aside from the €10,000 buy-in main event, they have several smaller prelim’s as well. It’s been awhile since I’ve played a live major and I’m getting the itch to put up some good results. I’ll be staying at the same hotel as last year (which was beautiful, the Monte Carlo Bay) with Michael (Sir)Watts.

It’s always kind of hectic planning these trips. Especially dealing with international travel. I might try to stop by some nearby destinations in Europe before I get into the poker mindset and land in Monaco on April 11th.
