Who Will Make the Final Six of the $10,300 PCA Main Event?

Tommy Nguyen
Tommy Nguyen

Only 20 players remain on Day 4 of the PokerStars Caribbean Adventure $10,300 Main Event but the stakes are high as many big names remain in contention.

Leading the way on Day 4 is Tommy Nguyen, 2018 WSOP Monster Stack winner, with 2,705,000. Nguyen will be looking to add another seven-figure score to his poker resume. He is trailed closely by Lebanese High Stakes PLO grinder, Jeff Hakim, who bagged up 2,640,000 a difference of just 65,000 chips. WPT L.A. Poker Classic Main Event 2017 champ Daniel Strelitz will start the day 3rd is chips with 2,615,000 and is followed by EPT Prague $50,000 High Roller winner Matthias Eibinger (2,485,000).

Other notables in the final 20 include Brian Altman (1,785,000), Matt Berkey (1,570,000), Chino Rheem (1,425,000), Mihai Manole (1,325,000), Christoph Vogelsang (1,240,000), Simon Deadman (750,000), Joao Simao (725,000), Ami Barer (570,000), Marc-Andre Ladouceur (300,000), and Danny Tang (245,000).

With only 20 players left, everyone remaining is guaranteed a payday of at least $60,840 but of course, that's not what they are eyeing. Those who are lucky enough to advance to the final table are guaranteed a payday of at least $146,840 and up for grabs is a first place prize of $1,567,100 as well as the PCA Main Event trophy.

Action is set to kick off at noon local time at 10,000/25,000/25,000 and the field is scheduled to cut down to just six players.
