Welcome to Day 1d of the €1,100 FPS Main Event
The 2023 PokerStars EPT presented by Monte-Carlo Casino®️ is well underway at the beautiful Monte-Carlo Sporting venue. Day 1d, the fourth and final starting flight of the France Poker Series (FPS) Main Event, commences at 6 p.m. local time.
Day 1d is a turbo flight with 20-minute blind levels. Players will start with stacks of 30,000 chips and blind levels begin at 100/100 with a 100 big blind ante.
Late registration will close at 10 p.m. tonight and then the number of entrants for the tournament will be finalized.
There will be 20-minute breaks after Levels 5 and 10. After that, there are no more breaks scheduled. Instead, action will continue until the field size is reduced to 15 percent. Those who survive will make it to Day 2 and will be in the money. The prize pool will be announced at the start of Day 2.
Lucas Scafini of Brazil is the reigning Monte-Carlo FPS Main Event champion. He outlasted a field of 1,918 entrants in 2022’s event to take home €250,000. Scafini is back this year and has already fired a couple of bullets in both Day 1a and Day 1b and is currently in contention in Day 1c.
A total of 65 out of 420 entrants survived Day 1a and 38 out of 254 survived Day 1b. Day 1c is running now and has already attracted more entries than the first two flights combined. Late registration for that flight is still open for a couple more hours.
Those who didn't make it through previous flights can opt to take up to two entries in Day 1d. This will be the final opportunity to make Day 2 of the FPS Main Event. Stay tuned to PokerNews for live updates from the tournament floor.
