We can’t wait to welcome players back for another incredible year of live poker.”
To secure a spot in EPT Paris, online satellites are already live.

Mikalai Ihnatovich opened from under the gun to 30,000. Parker Talbot moved all in for 125,000 from the hijack. Cyril Mira in the cutoff then moved all in over the top. He had both players covered but Ihnatovich made the fold.
Parker Talbot: A♣3♣
Cyril Mira: A♠Q♥
Talbot needed clubs and found one on the K♣8♥Q♠ flop. Mira made second pair on the flop and another club was found on the 2♣ turn. The board pairing 2♦ gave Mira two pair and eliminated Talbot from the tournament.
