Join PokerStars now! We expected a longer day when players returned to Le Sporting for the PokerStars Monte-Carlo®Casino European Poker Tour Grand Final this afternoon and we got it, with a day of tense action stripping a field of 130 down to 26, two short of the 24 we’d intended, led tonight by chip leader Geert Jan Potijk who takes 1,320,000 and the advantage into the penultimate day.

Riviera Radio (106.5 FM) is one such service, perfect for expats wanting the score in the Test Match or details of when the next British Society car boot sale is taking place (this weekend). Then there are the commercials, chief among which is that promising to help locals “make the most of their wealth”
