Pink Ribbon Monaco will be holding its Poker for Pink charity fundraising tournament once again this year, this time at the Sporting d’Été.

Pink Ribbon Monaco has announced details of the 2nd Poker For Pink tournament, a 100-seat tournament that will raise funds to continue raising awareness on breast cancer screening methods and prevention through campaigns and events.

The tournament is run in partnership with PokerStars, EPT Monte-Carlo Casino, and Groupe Monte-Carlo SBM, and is being held during the PokerStars and Monte-Carlo®Casino EPT Grand Final.

A Monaco association organising a poker tournament may seem like an unlikely pairing, but also makes for great press. The organisers want people to talk about breast cancer prevention, and even better, breast health!

Registration costs €200 and includes a welcome cocktail and a practice table at 7:00 pm and a place in the tournament, which starts at 8 pm.
