Sergei Popov's Eureka Moment

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

On the same day that the EPT Main Event got underway the Eureka Poker Tour Main Event was playing to its conclusion. Sergei Popov was not involved in the business end of the 1,315 runner tournament but he'd played the other legs and had put up some good results.

He was in a two way scrap for the Eureka Poker Tour Leader Board title and with it a €5,300 entry to the EPT10 Main Event of his choice. Points could also be earned in side events and it was here that Popov took his chance. A fourth place finish in event#13 - a €275 pot-limit Omaha Double Chance mean that he overtook Fiorilla at the death.. In all he cashed six times over the course of the season with his highest individual cash coming when he finished third in the Eureka Mini event in the Croatian leg in May winning €5,500.

It's not only Popov who's won a cash prize though as Fiorilla gets a Eureka Season 4 Main Event entry worth €1,100 and everyone in the top 10 wins a ticket worth at least €215.
