Where's the Loot?
With 44 players remaining in the partypoker World Poker Tour Vienna Main Event, the money is in sight.
Just 17 players will have to fall before the cheques are getting handed out, 17 unfortunate souls leave empty handed. The other 27 players will be guaranteed €5,480 at that point, while the winner will take home €150,000 and a ticket for the WPT World Championship worth another €15,400 on Tuesday.
The plan for the day is to play five 90-minute levels, or till the tournament is down to 16 players. Polish prodigy Dzmitry Urbanovich leads with 495,600 in chips, Fedor Holz with 416,600 in chips is second on the leader board.
There's work to be done for the likes of Michael Huber (34,600), Artur Koren (37,000) and Austria's third all time money earner Erich Kollmann (38,500). The levels are structured as followed today:
| Level | Small Blind | Big Blind | Ante |
|---|---|---|---|
| 14 | 1,200 | 2,400 | 400 |
| 15 | 1,500 | 3,000 | 500 |
| 16 | 2,000 | 4,000 | 500 |
| 17 | 2,500 | 5,000 | 500 |
| 18 | 3,000 | 6,000 | 1,000 |
