A Champion Will be Crowned in Event #4: €2,000 Pot-Limit Omaha
The third gold bracelet of the 2021 World Series of Poker Europe will be awarded today as Event #4: €2,000 Pot-Limit Omaha plays down to a winner.
Only 46 players out of 241 entries remain in contention for the €423,557 prize pool and the money bubble will be looming when the action resumes at 2pm local time in Europe's biggest poker arena at the King's Resort in Rozvadov.
Leading the field into the final day is the UK's Ian Bradley with 554,000 in chips and he is the only contender with more than 100 big blinds at his disposal for the restart. Ermanno Di Nicola (440,000) and Stanislav Parkhomenko (415,000) follow on the overnight podium while other notables in the top 10 include Richard Toth and Leonid Yanovski.
