The EPT season is coming to an end, and what a season we have seen. The EPT has become bigger than ever, which we really got a proof on just last week in San Remo when we had 1178 players starting! There is also one team who has grown in the same speed as the EPT tour, Team RedKings. The team officially started for about 8-9 months ago and is now already one of the most famous and biggest teams on the tour with players like Ramzi Jelassi, Toni Ojala, Jonas “Molle” Molander, Ivo Donev and Christian Heich. It is just a question of time when one of our stars gets to win something big, and why not already here in Monte Carlo?

Because of some circumstances the team is not in the same size as it usually is, but that doesn’t mean they are not as good as they use to be. It is our three superstars Toni Ojala, Ramzi Jelassi and Ivo Donev who is going to represent us here in Monte Carlo, that is not a trio I would like to meet either in a dark winter night or on a poker table. Ramzi the aggressive, Toni the almighty and Ivo the strategic, WOW.

Monte Carlo is probably the town with most money per citizen in the world, and now when all the rich and not rich poker players has come by for a week it is a funny mix of people going around. We have the poker players who is going around in exactly what they had on while they were in bed playing online the other night, and then we have the people with amazing cars and suits worth more than a lifetime savings of a blogger, sad but true.

The blog is going to be slightly different this time, you will actually be able to follow the players even closer than before as I will stand right behind them and blogging from my phone, todays technology is just amazing. You will be able to follow every interesting hand that will be played, of course mixed with quizzes and the freeroll passwords that I know you like!

It all starts today at 12:00 CEST, so keep your eyes open for the first quiz and for some Ramzi action! (Ramzi playing Day 1a, Toni and Ivo day 1b). What is interesting in this EPT is that it will have a brand new structure and the rumors is that this is the structure that will be used for the whole next EPT season. The players will now start with the massive stack of 30.000! The blind levels will be an hour as usual on day 1, then they will go over to be 75 minutes on day 2, this gives more space for the skilled players, which means a bigger chance of winning for Team RedKings!

If you took the time to read this post, I am going to award you for it with a small quiz where you can win a $20 voucher to your RedKings account:
How many players do you think will start in EPT Monte Carlo? (Question will be open during whole day 1a, and your answer will only count if you post your answer to this post together with your RK username. If you answer before day 1a starts and win, your prize will be doubled!)
