The money just keeps getting bigger bigger in this great game of ours. The massive lucre is in the millionaire’s playground of Monte Carlo this week, with the PokerStars.com European Poker Tour Grand Final underway.

The tournament is breaking all kinds of records, including highest turnout – with 298 players compared to last year’s 87, making it the richest tournament ever held in Europe, with a prize pool of nearly €3,000,000 ($3,552,000), and a top prize of €900,000 which equates to over one million dollars.

The big boys are in town with three WSOP champions gracing the felt.
