What Happened Last Year?
Yoann Kaminisky
The 2025 edition marked a historic moment for the tour. After 14 years in Paris, Winamax and Texapoker moved the Grand Finale to Aix-en-Provence for the first time, and the decision paid off.
The numbers surpassed expectation as there were 357,000 entries in online qualifiers, 9,505 participants across 11 live qualifying freerolls which resulted in 3,503 entries in the €500 Main Event
In the end, Yoann Kaminisky emerged victorious, defeating Patrice Espinasse heads-up to claim €175,000. Espinasse, who had qualified through a freeroll, turned €0 into €127,500 in one of the standout stories of the festival.
