2008 PokerStars.net EPT San Remo

The European Poker Tour will be invading Italy for the first time ever come Tuesday, April 1st and that's no joke. Casino San Remo will play host to Italy's inaugural EPT event, a €4,700 + 300 buy-in (roughly $7,252 US) no-limit hold'em tournament, which is also the last event of the season before the Grand Final in Monte Carlo later this month.

Team PokerStars pros Daniel Negreanu, Vanessa Rousso, Raymond Rahme, Tom McEvoy and Dario Minieri are just a few of the big names expected to attend this sold-out event.

Tune in to PokerNews.com at 3:00 p.m. local time (GMT +1) Tuesday afternoon for live updates, chip counts, photos and all the latest news direct from the tournament floor here in beautiful San Remo, Italy.
