On Thursday, Ronny Voth was eliminated from the main event after 4 days of play (50th place - €15,000), but the German pro had no plans whatsoever to take a break from poker given that he signed up for the €10,000 buy-in High Roller event. He and another 135 players battled it out for several hours before the tournament director called it a day.
Believe or not, but Voth finished the day with the largest stack (607,500 chips) - just like he did after the first day of the main event! It will will be interesting to follow him during Day 2 of the tournament, because he's playing extremely well at the moment and really deserves a nice cash this time!
45 players will return to play this afternoon and registration will be remain open until Day 2 begins, which means that the prize pool might become even greater! Below are the top 10 players of the tournament:
1 Ronny Voth 607,500
2 AP Phahurat 498,500
3 Max Lykov 445,800
4 Griffin Benger 382,200
