Benny Glaser Shares What Makes EPT Monte Carlo a Favorite Poker Stop
Much better known for his non-Hold’em mixed game prowess, Benny Glaser has been showing lately that he’s also comfortable with his no-limit hold’em game. The U.K. poker pro recently finished second in the Unibet Irish Poker Open €2k high roller, an event he won in November, and also cashed 21st in the €1,150 Main Event there.
