Roman Stoica won the PokerStars European Poker Tour (EPT) Monte Carlo €5,300 Main Event, taking €825,000 after coming through a 1,011-entry field on the French Riviera. Stoica defeated Austria’s Bernhard Binder heads-up to secure the title.

PokerStars said he became Russia’s ninth EPT winner and followed Aleksandr Shevliakov, named by the operator as the 2025 EPT Monte Carlo champion. “I’m very happy that I’ve become an EPT champion,” Stoica said. “This is the dream of every poker player. I’m feeling great – I just won €825,000, so how else can I feel! The secret to running as deep as I did is to play and practice as much as you can. It’s what brings you to the final table and to winning the tournament.”

Elsewhere, the €100,000 High Roller for One Drop raised €228,000 for the One Drop Foundation, with PokerStars stating 3% of each €100,000 buy-in was donated. Albert Daher won €2,055,000 after defeating Stephen Chidwick heads-up. Jason Koon won a €100,000 Sit & Go Invitational for a winner-takes-all €1 million first prize, beating Chidwick in heads-up play.
