The legendary Casinò di Campione has once again welcomed back a big poker series after many years and that is the Pokerstars Open Campione, where the Main Event is the main attraction with a buy-in of €1,100 and a guarantee of €1,000,000.
However, this guarantee was just a formality, as the prizepool reached a whopping €2,326,080 thanks to a record 2,423 entries. A prize of €363,000 awaits the winner, and someone will take it today.
Today, we'll see the final day of the Main Event, where the top 26 players have made it through, and all of them have already pocketed at least €8,600.
