Hi All,

JD - 98 - WAY too much responsibility I can't take all the credit for it. Essentially, if PS can be there for DBI, Skrill "should" be able to be there for their buyins.

Todd - 99 - Come find me when you get to Berlin and I'll see if I can help.

RPH - 100 - You can reg for the Sats from PS, but you can't do your rebuy.

Cheers,

I'm not playing Berlin. I'm in the US.

Maybe stars is getting some sort of discount on the bay and not the meridian but I priced out the hotels separately a while ago and the different was closer to 100 euro a day. Maybe it's just me but I think the meridian is a substantial downgrade in terms of luxury regardless, thats why it's such a huge bonus for supernova's

Neil, I wired money 2 weeks ago for a full package and a bunch of sides. I got a confirmation email saying my wire had been received from the registration team but I still have yet to find out what hotel I'm in. Seems like I should know by now since its a week away. Should I be worried?

How late is re-entry available in the 100k?

Neil, I was wondering if a friend could buy me in using their Pokerstars money? I am an American but my friend will be there and is willing to buy me in through the client. Is this possible?

Hi All,

Todd - 102 - Official contact info for the casino is below, I also emailed you and sheets...

Official Name - SFE - Sporting d'Hiver - MONACO
Sun Casino Cage - +377.98.06.12.38 (4pm - 2am daily)
Head Cashier - Louis Oniboni - L.ONIBONI@sbm.mc

Fatal- 104 - From what I understand we did get a really good deal at both hotels as part of our new 3 year deal with SBM/MCC. I've stayed in both and enjoyed both. The big thing the MCB has is that awesome pool, but the rest is fairly close I think?

Tony - 104 - You should have heard by now. Check your spam and if it isn't there, email reg again.

King - 105 - 4 levels plus breaks, so late reg will go until roughly 6:30pm provided we start on time.

Hiatus - 106 - Unfortunately it is not possible. In order to do that, we have to transfer the money from his account to yours and it is not allowed to transfer money to US accounts.

Cheers,

Won my package April 8 and still haven't heard anything about my hotel.When can I expect the hotel details?

Will be possible from the client.
To do a rebuy you need to have cash at the table so this is likely not possible from the client and I don't think there is a PokerStars bank.

Kenny

Hey Neil,

So I've been in Europe the past couple weeks playing other events and I have €4k in my backer's money left over. I was going to buy in online but is it possible if I buy in to the main with the €4k Euros & the rest Moneybookers or Stars?

don't think that will be possible but had the same problem 2 years ago.
Just searched for someone who wanted cash € for Stars or vice-versa.

Kenny

Hi All,

BR - 108 - You should have heard. Check your spam box and if it isn't in there, email registrations@pokerstars.com

Roothlus - 110 - Kenny is right, you can't split the buyin, sorry.

Cheers,

all help is appreciated.

thanks

Anyone have a room to share? Would pay for it, ldo.

What's going to be the highest stakes cash game?

Last time i played (2 or 3 years ago) the biggest game was 25/50, but he rake was pretty high like 30 or 50€ an hour.

It's also at a differnt place the tournamnt is held.

dayamm...this is turning out to be a very expensive trip

I'm landing at 10.45am on 25th in Nice if anyone wants to chop a taxi

This is the rake information Neil gave me for MC cash games. The EPT is not running the cash, Monte Carlo Casino is running it.

SB BB MIN. BUYIN RAKE

10/25 1000 RAKE - €15 per €500
50/100 5000 TIME - €200 per hour per player
100/200 10000 TIME - €300 per hour per player
250/500 25000 TIME - €400 per hour per player
500/1,000 50000 TIME - €500 per hour per player

And people complain about hollywood cash game rake!!!!!!! holy ****, 4bb/hr rake at 50/100 and 3% at 10-25, brutality

just play higher, the % goes down.

I'm landing at 8.55am on 24th in Nice if anyone wants to chop a taxi

Hi All,

Poker - 113 - It is really doubtful you are going to find a game that low. There won't be anything below 10-25 at EPT. There are only 6 tables, so MCC has set the limits starting at 10-25. You also will not find PLO anywhere to my knowledge.

Gogators - 116 - The highest they have set is 500 - 1000, but they will listen if someone is interested in higher limits.

Cash Games - confirmed what JSchnett posted. The secondary tournament room on the left as you go in (for those who have been to EPT MC before) is split 50/50 with the Monte-Carlo®Casino. They will have some Blackjack tables, at least one roulette and one craps (I think) as well as the 6 cash poker tables. The cash and casino games limits, rakes, hours, dealers, etc... are all through MCC. The gaming tables and cash games will be open from 8pm until roughly 4am. The tournaments and SNG (operated by EPT) will be open from 12pm until 6am. SNG will run from €300+.

Neil
