![[user76023]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
Here comes the money! Well, maybe not until the second or third level today. Just 292 players remain, but only 239 players will get paid a minimum of €8,050.
Five levels are planned for the day as the Main Event continues and with the High Roller starting tomorrow (and also being covered on Pokernews) many of the players will be looking to go big or go home (or go into the High Roller). With a record-breaking field of 1,496, there is a mouth-watering €1,261,000 for the winner but that won't be decided until Wednesday.
Before then, we've got the bubble to get through, which as mentioned, should happen in level 16 or 17.
Czech player Vojtech Ruzicka, who won the €10,000 High Roller in Deauville back in Season 9, is the current chip leader with 621,100 with Nima Ahrary (519,600) and former EPT London winner Martin Finger (502,300) the only other players over the half million mark.
Team PokerStars Pros Jan Heitmann (203,000) and Andre Akkari (55,500) are still alive while sponsored pros Dominik Panka (139,500) and Thor Hansen (102,600) also remain.
Play will begin at 12 p.m. local time with live streaming also available on EPT Live, table 12 has been chosen as the first feature table. Stay here as we bring you all the latest news as the biggest ever EPT on European soil continues!
