Britain's Jack Salter goes into today's final table of the EPT Grand Final in Monte Carlo as the chip leader with 5,170,000 chips after a remarkable turnaround over the past 48 hours.

Salter went into day four as one of the shortest stacks but overtook Mayu Roca in the last hour of play on day five thanks to his unrelenting aggression and frequent cold four-bets which no one else seemed to have an answer to.

Salter leads a table of six different nationalities. As well as Salter representing the UK and Roca being the hope of Colombia, there is also Magnus Karlsson of Sweden, Italy's Antonio Buonanno, and Kenny Hicks from the USA. The trio of Sebastian von Toperczer, Malte Moennig and Sebastian Bredthauer will represent Germany, which has been arguably the most dominant country on the European Poker Tour this season.
