The five finalists have made their way to the feature table and the live stream is currently being prepared. Action will get underway in a few minutes with hand-for-hand coverage provided by the PokerNews team.
Day 4 of Event #50: $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em BOUNTY begins at 1 p.m. local time. After 121 hands were played on the final table last night, there are still five players left to battle it out for the bracelet and the first-place prize of $266,646. The prize pool combined for a total of $2,601,450 (including the $500 won for each bounty collected), paying out 290 spots. This is an unscheduled day as action was not able to be completed yesterday — a champion will be crowned before the night is done!
The chip leader going into Day 4 is Bryan Emory, who bagged 6,130,000. Emory is almost double his nearest competitor's stack, James Gilbert who has 3,300,000. The other three players left in the field are Chris Bolek with 1,700,000, Zhaoxing Wang with 1,675,000 and Tobias Peters with 1,650,000.
When play resumes, players will start halfway through Level 31 at 60,000/120,000 blinds with a 20,000 ante. After that they will play as many 60-minute levels as it takes to crown a winner. There will be a 15-minute break every two levels. Dinner break will take place after Level 36, around 7:00 p.m., and will be 60 minutes long. Also, the final five will be live streamed on PokerGo.
