41 Return at Noon for Day 4 of the EPT Prague Main Event
Another day, another noon starting time for Day 4 of the �5,300 Main Event at the 2019 PokerStars European Poker Tour in the Hilton Prague. Out of 1,54 entries, a mere 41 hopefuls will return to the felt to try and make an even deeper run than they have already made. They are all already guaranteed at least �17,460 but will all have their sights set on that amazing first-place prize of �1,005,600.
Coming into the day with the chip lead is Luigi Shehadeh with 2,287,000 in chips. He is followed by Gaby Livshitz, Norbert Szecsi, Akin Tuna, and Alessio Di Cesare. But former EPT Champions Mikalai Pobal, Dominik Panka, and current World Champion Hossein Ensan are also still in the running to try and follow in the footsteps of Victoria Coren Mitchell to become a two-time winner.
When the players return, they will play Level 21 which features a small blind of 8,000, big blind of 16,000, and a big blind ante of 8,000. Player bagged the time bank cards they had left and will receive an additional five at the start of the day. Play will continue until there are sixteen players left and the expectation is that around six levels will be played.
