Gab Yong Kim leads the pack with 16 Remaining, going into Day 3 of the $3,000 Mystery Bounty at the PokerStars European Poker Tour Prague. The Glamorous Hilton Prague is the destination for Day 3, with action is set to commence at 12 p.m. local time.
A total of 787 entrants took part in this year's event, with 304 making it to Day 2. This created a total prize pool of €1,350,492. All players returning for Day 3 have already secured a €3,160 min-cash, plus any bounties they have collected. All will be aiming for that top prize of €246,802.

1 | €246,802 | 8 | €38,560 |
2 | €154,150 | 9 | €22,810 |

As well as the conventional prize pool, the tournament also generated a bounty prize pool of €787,000. The top bounty prize was €50,000, of which there were three available and all three were collected on Day 2. Ukrainian Lurii Senchylo was the first to scoop the top bounty and ended the day in 11th place.
Despite not making the money, Mats Nylander found a nice payday as he cashed the second €50,000 prize. Jelle Moene took the final €50,000 bounty. The Dutchman finished in 26th place, collecting a €7,280 payout on top of his bounties.
Leading the way is Gab Yong Kim, who bagged 3,790,000 (76 big blinds) after a productive Day 2. The player most at risk, even more so given the bounty incentive, is Toni Kaukua, who sits with just 250,000 chips (five big blinds).

The cards are in the air and play has commenced for the day. The remaining 16 players are playing out the remaining 11 minute and 52 seconds of Level 27.
Pavlos Xanthopoulos, who was second in chips at the beginning of the day, made a strong start already on Day 3.
He limped in from the small blind and Henri Kasper in the big blind checked it to see a flop.
It came 3♣5♦A♥ and the Greek led out for 50,000. He was called with Kasper having 370,000 behind.
Both shut down as the A♦ landed on the turn.
The 10♥ river also prompted no further action. Xanthopoulos tabled J♦3♠ to take the pot as his Estonian opponent mucked his hand.

Youngshin Im raised to 115,000 from the hijack, Pavlos Xanthopoulos three-bet to 300,000 from the cutoff and Im moved all in for approximately 1,350,000, sending Xanthopoulos into the tank.
Xanthopoulos was thinking so long the clock was called, eventually prompting him to make the call.
Yongshin Im: A♦K♣
Pavlos Xanthopoulos: A♠Q♠
The board ran out 9♦J♠Q♥8♠9♥. Xanthopoulos pulled ahead as he flopped a queen. His turned nut flush draw only slimmed Im's chances and the river ensured her departure.

Luri Senchylo, winner of the first €50,000 bounty prize of the tournament, became the second casualty of Day 3.
He shoved from the small blind and was called by Igor Pihela in the big blind.
Iurii Senchylo: A♣9♥
Igor Pihela Jr: A♦J♥
Both flopped top pair, with the board coming 3♠A♠7♦.
A 6♣ on the turn kept Pihela ahead.
The 3♥ river confirmed the Ukrainian's exit and gave Pihela another all-important bounty chip.
