2026 PokerStars EPT Monte-Carlo
PokerStars has rolled out a major update to its Power Path qualification system, introducing a brand-new $530 Bronze Power Pass as part of a restructure designed to smooth out progression between buy-in levels.
The changes, which came into effect on April 27, leave the upper echelons of Power Path unchanged with the $10,300 Gold Pass and $2,500 Silver Pass both remaining in place, while the main adjustments come further down the ladder, where PokerStars has reshaped its Bronze tier and added a new entry point for lower-stakes players.

In the movie Rocky IV, Russian boxer Ivan Drago is trained to be a powerful, emotionless fighting machine, showing no mercy towards his opponents. Aleksandr Shevliakov did his best impersonation of his fictional compatriot last year at the final table of the PokerStars European Poker Tour Monte-Carlo Main Event held at Sporting Monte-Carlo.
Shevliakov, barely cracking a smile or displaying any hint of the pressure of the moment, seized the chip lead early and powered through the rest of the final table on his way to hoisting the Golden Shard trophy and taking home the €1,000,000 first prize after defeating Ukrainian amateur Khossein Kokhestani heads-up and conquering the 1,195-player field.
