After three days, the original field of 504 entries is down to the final table, with the €1,000,000 first prize awaiting the winner. Charlie Carrel rode the wave of a wild up-and-down Day 3 to emerge as the chip leader coming into today’s play. With 102,100,000 chips, Carrel is followed in the chip counts by Romain Lewis (81,800,000), and Lukas Zaskodny (71,500,000).
With the big blind already at 1,600,000, however, the tournament is truly still up for grabs, as all remaining players are still relatively close in the counts.
Carrel, Grafton in the Hunt
If Carrel can pull of the win, the €1,000,000 first prize would be his second seven-figure score in the month of August. The 25-year-old English pro began the month with a win in the No-Limit Hold’em 8-Handed event at the Triton Super High Roller series in London, which netted him his career-high cash of $1,601,853.
Carrel rode a late-night surge to the top of the chip leaderboard, but closing the deal will be no easy task at King’s Resort in Rozvadov, Czech Republic.
One of the more accomplished players still remaining in the field is Sam Grafton (62,400,000), who came into Day 3 with one of the biggest stacks in the room and stayed afloat throughout the day, clinching his spot at the final table.
A fourth-place finish or better would earn Grafton the biggest cash of his career, and he’s already wrapped up his fourth six-figure cash of 2019.
Tough Draw
The remaining eight players in the field will all earn at least the eighth-place prize money of €100,000. Roberto Romanello (41,900,000), the only remaining partypoker pro in the field, will go over $4 million in career earnings no matter where he finishes.
France’s Lewis is another tough final table foe, who will be looking to top the $2 million mark in career earnings. Lewis would do just that with a sixth place finish or better.
The presence of Romanello, Lewis, Carrel and Grafton, makes this a tough final table draw for all involved. Zaskodny, Severin Schleser (69,500,000), Rastislav Paleta (42,000,000), and Josef Snejberg (32,900,000) round out the final eight for what is sure to be an entertaining finale at the partypoker LIVE MILLIONS Europe Main Event.
