Day 3 Action Begins on the Money Bubble as we Look to Crown a Winner
For the past two days, the Casino Barcelona has played host to the European Poker Tour Season 10 Barcelona €50,000 Super High Roller, an event that drew 40 unique players that accounted for 11 re-entries to create a prize pool of €2,448,765. Eight of those player remain in contention for the €771,300 first-place prize, but only seven of them will finish in the money. That means someone will leave here empty handed and miss out on a minimum payday of €128,515.
The man best positioned to make a run at the title is Ole Schemion, who leads the final table with 2,835,000. On the flip side, Timothy Adams is in the most danger of finishing as the bubble boy as he sits on the short stack with 845,000. Other still in contention are Steve O'Dwyer, Mike McDonald, Erik Seidel, Fabian Quoss, David Benefield and Vitaly Lunkin.
Action will resume in Level 19 (30,000/60,000/5,000), so we don't expect it'll take too long for the bubble to bust.
