The Grand Final in Monte Carlo attracted the toughest field ever seen for a poker tournament in Europe, including stars like Marcel Luske, Gus Hansen, Patrik Antonius, Phil Ivey, Joe Hachem, Greg Raymer, Barry Greenstein, Vicky Coren and Phil Hellmuth. Two of Europe's finest players - Ram Vaswani and Andy Black - both made the final table alongside eventual winner Gavin Griffin, Marc Karam Canada, Soren Kongsgaard, Kristian Kjondal, Josh Prager, and Steve Jelinek.
