Evy Widvey Kvilhaug Turning €55 into a Lot More in the EPT Monte Carlo Main Event
Evy Widvey Kvilhaug is having the run of her life in the PokerStars and Monte-Carlo®Casino European Poker Tour €5,300 EPT Main Event after qualifying for just €55 online at PokerStars. From that feeder satellite, she got into a €530 direct qualifier which she nearly bubbled.

Widvey came in with very little expectations as a small-stakes online player with $9,000 in cashes on her Hendon Mob.
“I knew it was going to be a lot of good players so I just thought, let’s go for the experience, it’s going to be fun to say ‘I played in an EPT once.’ Now I can say I played in an EPT once and I cashed!’”
