Hi All,

***NOTE - Important announcement for the Super High Roller!

We have extended the reload period through to the start of Day 2! So you can enter for the first 4 levels, and re-enter for the first 8 levels. The start of Level 9 (1K - 3K - 6K - 250,000 stack) on Day 2 will close the reload period.

Cheers,

Neil

Any restaurant recommendations for whats good inside the MCB or some good spots within walking distance?

I only remember eating at a sushi spot down the street, an italian pizza type place on the beach and that lobby restaurant in the MCB last time I was there.

Not 4bb/hr at 50 100, but 2bb/hr, so 1BB/hr which equals about 4BB/100
Must be beatable with rich fishes from Monaco (i know that small stakes like PLO25 or 50 on stars.fr are raked something like 15BB/100 if i don't say crap)

as per the cash game rake list will there be no 25/50 cash games, only 10/25 and 50/100+?

also, does anyone know whether you need to declare cash over 10k when travelling (by plane)within the EU

Yes you need to déclare over 10k within EU.

You should go to the customs and in theory need to find them in the airport.

Just got to monte carlo bay hotel. Somehow if you want a room that has 2 beds in it, its an extra 296 euro a night. Otherwise you can have ur king bed split a few inches a part and made in to 2 twins. pretty absurd imo

No you don't.

If you plan to enter or leave the EU with € 10 000 or more in cash (or its equivalent in other currencies) you must declare it to the customs authorities.

So within the EU is fine.

Hi,

When does the Late Reg for the Main Event end?

I have one good flight on day 1b, but it arrives 14:30 in Nice so i'm not sure if its 2 levels or 4 levels this time?

Regards,

Beyn

Hey Neil

Just for future events in MC and for guys who are still arriving. There's a nice bus at the Nice Airport, the 110 Express. Just a few stops (at Monaco only), it's easy to find, it takes 45/50 minutes (assuming heavy traffic), and it costs 19 Euros. Hope this helps.

Even when pointing out the official brochure states 25min lvl instead of 20, floormans dont care and keep it to 20. Sad.

Hi All,

Beyn - 138 - Late reg is two levels plus break. If we start on time, it would be 2:15pm. Email registrations@pokerstars.com. They should be able to sort you out.

Starzz - 139 - No. Filming for TV in a few months. Updates on PokerStarsBlog, PokerNews, EPT Facebook, etc...

Thib - 143 - It was an error in the magazine, but caught after it went to press. Sorry.

JD - 144 - Yes for both.

Marton - 146 - Come see the registrations people at the venue.

RPH - 147 - Thanks! That information always helps!

Cheers,

Neil
