The third and final day in Event #5: €550 NLH Colossus plays out today at the 2024 World Series of Poker Europe (WSOPE) with 16 players all looking to get their hands on the bracelet and €171,350 first prize at King's Resort in Rozvadov.
Leading the charge for the title is Cyprus' Georgios Tsouloftas with a stack of 12,210,000 — good for 76 big blinds. Tsouloftas marched up the counts in the closing levels of Day 2 by eliminating three players, and will be looking to continue that momentum when play gets underway at 2 p.m..
