Day 3 Beckons
Hello and welcome back to the Alpine Palace here in Austria for Day 3 of the PokerStars.net EPT Snowfest.
Yesterday 268 players returned to their seats but only 81 of them survived it through the six 75-minute long levels with their chip stacks intact. This means that nine unfortunate souls will walk away empty handed as only the top 72 finishers will make it to the money.
Amongst those returning to the felt are Team PokerStars Pros Alexander Kravchenko, Fatima Moreira de Melo, Sebastian Ruthenberg and Luca Pagano. The man they all have to catch is Belgium's Philip Meulyzer who has managed to turn his 30,000 starting stack into a colossal 623,500 over two days of play.
Play resumes at 1400 local time and we will be playing until just 24 players remain. Tune back in for all the news and action from the tournament floor, it should be fun!
