All remaining players have at least €12,500 locked up for their efforts, while a gigantic payday of €1,000,000 awaits for the winner.

Day 1c chip leader Aristeidis Moschonas also bagged up the lead one day later and claimed 36.55 million in chips, edging past Pavel Plesuv (28.725 million), Oliver Price (28 million), Abdelhakim Zoufri (27.5 million) and Artan Dedusha (25.125 million).

After recording a career-best score in the first €25,000 Super High Roller and finishing 4th in the second edition, the Brazilian has crossed $1.3 million in live earnings during the festival already.
