Monte Carlo is going to be the centre of every poker player's attention come the end of this month as the tour of the year culminates in its grand final week there. However, a new addition to the week's schedule is set to make the event all the better, and all the more beneficial.

Ante Up for Africa Europe Celebrity Charity Poker Tournament is set to run on April 27th and will get underway at 6 o'clock. The buy-in for the event is €4,000, and both celebrities and poker players are expected to turn out for the occasion.

Ante Up for Africa has run several times previously, raising millions and attracting the likes of Ben Affleck, Matt Damon, Adam Sandler, Don Cheadle, and Shannon Elizabeth in the quest to do so. The money that's collected through the tournament is distributed to organisation such as Not On Our Watch  and Enough. These organisations do invaluable work for victims of the Darfur humanitarian crisis.

For those who would like to be a part of the process of raising money for this incredibly important cause, but maybe don't have the funds for the buy in, entrance can be won through the PokerStars site. If you qualified for the EPT Monte Carlo through PokerStars satellites you'll be invited to a freeroll that will be running on Sunday April 19th. The final of this freeroll will see the top two players winning seats for the Ante Up for Africa event as well as $1,000 for expenses. Not just that, but if you are from France or Italy you could get into that final through daily freeroll qualifiers running from now at 14.00 ET.

As well as the knowledge of having helped those in dire need, the winner of Ante Up For Africa will also win a package for the 2010 PokerStars Caribbean Adventure.
