It’s certainly been a successful start to the 2024 PokerStars European Poker Tour Monte Carlo series, as evidence by a big field in the €1,100 France Poker Tour Main Event. Action continues today at Sporting Monte-Carlo with the opening flight of the €2,200 FPS High Roller.
This two-day event will see a pair of starting flights played today, with Day 1a kicking off at 11 a.m. local time. That will be followed by the turbo Day 1b tonight at 6 p.m. local time, where levels will be halved as players battle to reach the money and earn a spot in Day 2.

The most recent €2,200 FPS High Roller took place two months ago in Paris, where Henrik Juncker denied PokerStars AmbassadorParker Talbot in a heads-up battle to claim his first EPT trophy.
Players will begin with 30,000 chips, with blinds of 100/200 and a 200 big blind ante. Late registration remains open until the end of Level 10, which marks the start of a scheduled 75-minute dinner break. The tournament features unlimited reentries, and play will continue until only 15% of the field remain to bag for Day 2.
