Felix Schneiders is among the other notable players who is still in contention. He took a relatively short stack and turned it into a playable one when he doubled up and then made a set of aces late in the day. Irish Open 2023 winner David Docherty is also still in the mix, as are WSOP bracelet winners Simone Andrian and Tommy Nguyen.

The Main Event attracted 916 entries, which made for a total prize pool of €879,360. This represents a 12 percent increase on the field size from last year. Players hailed from 57 countries, with Italy, France, Germany, Greece and the UK all well represented.
