A day of reckoning awaits for Germany today at Euro 2024 in their mouth-watering quarter-final clash with Spain, while the same applies to any poker players hoping to book their spot in Day 2 of the €1,100 Main Event at PokerStars Eureka Hamburg.
Day 1c, the final starting flight, is due to kick off at 4:00 p.m. local time Friday, July 5, at Casino Schenefeld.
Two starting flights have already been completed, attracting a total of 374 entrants, generating a current prize pool of €355,300. With big numbers expected today, the event looks set to be a potential record-breaker.
