France Poker Series Aix-Les-Bains Main Event to Begin at 1 p.m.

The France Poker Series (FPS) hosted by PokerStars has returned to the Casino Grand Cercle in Aix-Les-Bains, where competitors from near and far have gathered to take their shot at poker glory in the €1,100 Main Event over the next several days.

Last year, France's own Alban Juen overcame a 475-entry field and put on a dominating performance to take down his first second FPS title along with the $94,512 first-place prize. More recently, Juen continued his hot streak by winning an $1,100 Wynn Summer Classic event in Las Vegas for a career-best $380,767 back in May.
