Raúl Mestre Dominates EPT Montecarlo 2026 Main Event, Secures Second Place


Raúl Mestre has made a significant impact in the EPT Montecarlo 2026 Main Event, earning 2,919,000 points and securing second place heading into Day 5. The Main Event entered its decisive phase with 20 players advancing to Day 5, and Mestre's performance has been nothing short of spectacular.

Mestre started Day 4 with 1,627,000 points and ended with 2,910,000 points, showcasing his skill and strategy. Bernhard Binder leads the event with 4,540,000 points, but Mestre's aggressive play has put him in a strong position. One of the most notable hands of the day involved a bluff against Tahar Said. On a board of AJ3TA, Mestre went all-in with K3, causing Said to fold with A8.

Mestre's performance has been closely followed by poker enthusiasts, and his aggressive style has earned him a reputation as a formidable opponent. As the tournament progresses, all eyes will be on Mestre to see if he can maintain his momentum and secure a top finish.

I've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
