€5,300 EPT Main Event
Jour 5 terminé
L'an passé Paul Michaelis était en tête du PokerStars Championship Prague après deux jours de compétition. L'Allemand avait finalement quitté la compétition en 28e position (18.900€).
Alors que la compétition a repris son nom originel, Michaelis est en tête du Main Event PokerStars European Poker Tour Prague à 6 left. Les survivants du tournoi à 5300€ l'entrée qui a rassemblé 1174 entrants ont les yeux rivés sur le premier prix d'un million d'euros et le Platinum Pass d'une valeur de 30.000$ pour les Bahamas.
Avec 10,060,000 jetons et 84 blindes, il devance le spécialiste de Twitch Parker Talbot (31bb), calé dans le peloton derrière un duo ukraino-russe. En queue de peloton, Carlos Branco n'a pas dit son dernier mot avec 26 blindes sur des niveaux de 90 minutes.

Le Jour 5 avait débuté avec 16 joueurs. Konstantin Farber et Fionn MacNamara n'ont pas survécu bien longtemps alors qu'Ugo Faggioli s'est fait prendre en bluff par Michaelis avant que l'Allemand n'élimine le dernier Français en lice sur un flip pour 40 blindes.
Michaelis aurait pu prendre une large avance mais il a perdu une confrontation contre
chez Alexandr Merzhvinskii préflop. Dernier vainqueur EPT en course, Andrey Pateychuk a fait le short-stack ninja avant de se heruter au brelan de ce même Merzhvinskii avec deux paires (9e).
Diego Zeiter s'est lui empalé sur les flèches d'Artem Kobylynskyi avant que Merzhvinskii ne termine le travail.
Malgré un bon début de Jour 5, Liviu Ignat n'a pas pu s'xprimer sur la dernière table et s'incline finalement avec contre
chez Laurynas Levinskas'.
Assurés d'un gain de 179,360€, les six derniers survivants ont alors emballé leurs jetons. La partie reprendra mardi à midi sur avec 15 minutes à jouer dans le niveau (60 000 - 120 000) [120 000]. PokerNews sera au contact de l'action pour vous faire vivre la dernière ligne droite.
