From a starting field of 113 runners, the final 41 were back in their chairs today and ready for the fight to the final table. It was a stacked field to start the day -- and it still is -- but a ton of notables fell by the wayside through the course of today's action. Among the casualties of this moving day were Team PokerStars Pros William Thorson, Rino Mathis, Leo Fernandez, Alexander Kravchenko, Chad Brown, and Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier. Also making their exits shy of the money were Yevgeniy Timoshenko, Gus Hansen (who decided to forgo this day and instead blind off his ~60,000 chips), Antony Lellouche, Antoine Saout, and PokerNews' own Tony G.
When Luke Schwartz was eliminated in ninth place, the final table was set for tomorrow's run to the big money. Here's how the last eight will set up heading into the final day of EPT Season 6 tomorrow:
Seat 1: Dori Yacoub - 1,199,000
Seat 2: Tom Marchese - 909,000
Seat 3: Tobias Reinkemeier - 826,000
Seat 4: Sorel Mizzi - 770,000
Seat 5: Allen Bari - 835,000
Seat 6: Olivier Busquet - 666,000
Seat 7: Paul Berende - 327,000
Seat 8: Michael Friedrich - 112,000
That's all we've got for you tonight from Monte Carlo. We're off to rest up so that we can give you some proper coverage tomorrow. Hopefully, our website will cooperate a bit better for the last day, and we ask you to bear with us as we get some more robust hardware installed server-side.
Thanks once again for joining us here, and we'll see you right back here tomorrow at noon!
