Catch Up on Yesterday's EPT Main Event Action
It was nothing short of an explosive Day 4 from start to finish in the PokerStars European Poker Tour Monte Carlo €5,300 Main Event.
It all began with a flurry of bustouts that saw 14 players hit the rail during the first level of play at Sporting Monte-Carlo. We've seen hero calls, a chip leader emerge from the ashes, and a bluff gone wrong that left one of the remaining 16 players with just a single big blind as chips were bagged and tagged.
The player who thrived the most in the madness was Philipp Wenzelburger, who was down to just 13 big blinds early in the day only to win three huge hands in a row to take the overall chip lead. Wenzelburger returned for only his second EPT Monte Carlo. In his first, at the 2016 EPT Monte Carlo, he gained a huge chip lead in the €1,100 FPS Main Event only to bust in 21st place, earning himself the nickname "German Train".
