€1,020,000 For the Winner
With 1,174 entries (893 unique players and 281 reentries), the total prize pool has come to €5,693,900 ($6,427,432) here at the PokerStars EPT Prague. €1,020,000 ($1,151,404) of that is reserved for the winner who'll be crowned on Tuesday. The runner-up is set to receive €600,810, so a heads-up match for €419,190 is in the books unless the players reach a deal. A total of 175 spots are paid with a min-cash being worth €8,710 ($9,832).
Last time the EPT Prague was held, back in 2016, Jasper Meijer van Putten beat a field of 1,192 players to take home €699,300, the biggest share from a total prize pool of €5,781,200. That event, though, was a freeze-out with no reentries allowed.
In 2017, when this event ran as part of the now defunct PokerStars Championship tour, the event attracted 855 players with Kalidou Sow coming out on top to take home €675,000 from the €4,146,750 prize pool.
