This year’s Dusk Till Dawn Monte Carlo Event, is being produced as a pilot televised show, with a view to airing future larger buy-in tournaments at Dusk Till Dawn in 2011. The event is planned to be broadcast on one of the mainstream UK television channels (details to follow)
Last year’s tournament attracted 300 runners, and despite a very strong field of seasoned professionals, the eventual winner was local favourite Waheed Ashraf, who walked away with the £93,113 first prize (pictured left)
The structure will be the same as last year, mirroring the Pokerstars EPT Grand Final in Monte Carlo. Simon Trumper, Live Poker Director, believes it is better not to make too many changes to the clubs annual event:
“This will be our third year running this event. We realise its pretty close to Christmas, and there have been a number of major events in London over the past month. However, the date has worked very well for us so far. It doesn’t clash with any other major tournaments, and it falls nicely on the clubs 3rd birthday! We will announce a number of live and online satellites over the next few weeks which will allow players to qualify for a fraction of the buy-in.”
