The WSOP Europe is slowly coming to a close, but before that we still need to know the winner of the Main Event. The €10,350 buy-in Main Event attracted 768 entries, 49 fewer than a year ago. The prizepool is now worth €7,219,200.
A valuable bracelet awaits the winner, along with a prize of €1,300,000. Yesterday's Day 3 saw 185 players enter, but only 116 of them could make it to the ITM, with the mincash worth €20,900. The bubble-boy was the recent WSOPE bracelet winner, Czech player Michal Schuh.
Just before the end of Day 3, Viktor Blom was the last to be eliminated, taking home €27,100 for his 48th place finish. That leaves 47 players through to Day 4, and all of them have at least €30,300 in their pockets. The chipleader here is French player Rachid El Yaacoubi with a stack of 4,100,000. In second place is the well-known Italian player Andrea Ricci with a stack of 2,980,000. Daniel Rezaei (2,915,000), Anson Tsang (2,450,000), Shaun Deeb (2,315,000), Dietrich Fast (1,775,000), Vladas Tamasauskas (1,150,000) and the last woman in the field - Monika Zukowicz (610,000) - are also on the list of advancers.
Play will start today at 12:00 on blinds 20k/40k/40k and will run for 90 minutes. The plan for today is to get to know the names of the final table participants.
