There are now only 8 of 75 players with chips left in the EPT London high roller event. This means that the final table is set and all players are guaranteed at least £58,400 each from the £1,485,000 prizepool. The winner will take home amazing £511,300 while the runner-up will get £321,000.
In a big lead is Igor Kurganov (picture), from Germany, with 854,000. In second place is Robery Akery, from UK, with just about 622,000. Three players to keep an eye on the final table today are Olivier Busquet, Samuel Trickett and Michael Tureniec - great tournament players with fantastic results in the past!
Now, this last table will pass very fast. I never entered a big real poker tourney, but i imagine this guys may suffer with the antecipation of stoping and going to sleep and then coming back in the next day to continue playing the same game: if, on one side, it gives them time to relax and define strategy for the rest of the game, it can also increase their game stress...
