🇹🇷 "runner runner" crushed Day1 B!

Entries 454/ Left 177

Day 1B Part 1 of the EPM with a 2 million guarantee has just concluded here at King’s Resort in Rozvadov. The event saw the participation of 328 unique players who, along with 126 re-entries, recorded 454 entries, bringing 177 qualifiers to Phase 2.

The next step merges the survivors from Day 1A and Day 1B into a single flight that will play over ten levels of 80 minutes each or, more likely, end when 12% of the field is reached.

"I have A♦️ 7♦️, and after an open and several calls, I decided to call from BTN. However, the player in SB 3 bets about 20K, two players call, and I find myself almost forced to call. The flop comes A♥️ 7♥️ 5♠️, everyone checks, and I bet 100K, roughly the size of the pot. Two players fold, and one player calls.

The turn is a J♠️, and he goes all-in directly for about 300K. I call, and he shows A♣️ K♣️. The river is a blank, and I win a huge pot just before the end of the day.

How do I find playing with such long levels? Great, it’s a different game. I’ve played events with similar structures before, like the EPT, but never a low buy-in!"

The Top 5

In the top 5 positions in the count, Czech player Roman Chochola is in second place with 609,700 chips, followed by Georgian player Vladimir Gigolashvili with 530,400.

Completing today’s top 5 are German player Robert Andreas Ashelm with 425,500 chips, and in fifth place, Polish player Mateusz Pawel Koczwara with 424,500 chips.
