Seat 4: Jon Kyte, 29, Norway – 22,875,000

Jon Kyte
Jon Kyte

Jon Kyte’s poker career took off six years ago in this very city, where he captured the Norwegian Poker Championship title along with €240,000. While it remains Kyte’s biggest payday to date, he’s now inching towards setting a new high score.

Inching may not be the right word as Kyte has taken the EPT Prague Main Event by storm, bagging back-to-back day-end leads on Days 3 and 4 before knocking out three players early into Day 5. Kyte has eased his way to the final table, never relinquishing the chip lead through the entire penultimate day.

His stack of close to 23 million, nearly 15 million more than his closest challenger, possibly represents the biggest chip lead coming into the final day of any EPT Main Event.

If there was a place for Kyte to reach his first EPT final table, it had to be Prague. Last year, he finished fourth in the Eureka Main Event, winning €131,900 in the same tournament room. Having locked up his third six-figure cash in the Czech capital, Kyte has eyes on the top prize. He can become Norway’s fourth EPT champion – and first in 13 years – following Bjørn-Erik Glenne, Andreas Høivold, and Kevin Stani.
