EPT Grand Final Side Event Round Up: Hossein Ensan and George Rankin Take Two

Lee Davy brings you a round up of the main stories from the edges of the European Poker Tour Grand Final in Monte Carlo, including two victories apiece for Hossein Ensan and George Rankin.

Everyone knows that Erik Seidel won the €100,000 Super High Roller at the European Poker Tour (EPT) in Monte Carlo. Most people know that Mustapha Kanit won the €50,000 High Roller. But did you know that the Season 11 finale is a 78 event record breaker?

Let’s take a look at the action on the outer tables.

Two players have won two side events. The most impressive of which belongs to Hossein Ensan. He first popped up on the EPT’s radar in 2014, after wading through a field of 1,496 players to finish third in the EPT Main Event in Barcelona.
