Welcome to the Day 6 finale of the €5,300 Main Event at PokerStars EPT Prague. Only six players remain to battle for the top prize of €1,033,520 and the coveted European Poker Tour trophy. Cards go in the air at 12 p.m. Prague time from King's Casino at the Hilton Hotel in Prague. All of today's action will be broadcast live at 12:30 p.m. on PokerStars TV on a 30-minute security delay.
Gab Yong Kim is the chip leader after a late run on Day 5 to move from the bottom of the leaderboard to the top. The South Korean poker player will look to win his first EPT Main Event title after finishing ninth at the 2019 Prague event - a year in which he also won the €2,200 Deep Stack.
Kim's closest competitor is Italy’s Andrea Cortellazzi, who finished with nearly 8 million chips after a penultimate day that saw multiple changes at the top of the leaderboard. They’re joined at the final table by Armin Rezaei, Symeon Alexandridis, Demetrio Caminita, and Grzegorz Glowny.
