Who Going to Take Down the EPT Prague Main Event?
Still 6 players are in contention for the coveted 2015 PokerStars EPT Season 12 Prague €5,300 Main Event title, with Ilkin Amirov in the lead. The Azerbaijani was already going strong when he knocked out no less than three people in one hand to go from 13 to 10 players in one swoosh. That hand, dubbed one of the wildest hands in EPT history, speeded things up, but it still took for just after midnight to finish the penultimate day.
The final table starts at 1 om local time today (in about an hour), but live coverage on PokerNews.com doesn't start till 2 pm as we don't want to spoil anything for the live stream. There's still some 23 minutes left in level 30 (50,000/100,000 with a 10,000 ante), which gives chip leader Amirov 100 big blinds while short stack Olivier Ferrero starts with only 18 big blinds.
