A winner will be crowned today as the final day of the PokerStars Festival Hamburg Main Event is commencing again at 1 p.m local time. The winner will take home the trophy but also very important, an amazing amount of €105,850. A pretty wonderful return for their €1,100 buy-in.
Ulrich Pauls will start the day with a convincing chip lead but nothing is said and done yet as there are 14 other players that have their eyes set on the tournament win. Pauls won his chips by eliminating quite a few players yesterday and bluffing his way through some big hands. Karolis Domarkas, the friendly Lithuanian, won’t be that nice to just let Pauls continue the run he had yesterday. Even though Domarkas starts at the other table, he will try his best to stop Pauls if they get to the same table.
PokerStars Team Pro Marcin Horecki will be looking to take this win for the PokerStars team. He had a wonderful day yesterday by going from 26,000 chips to finishing with 1,825,000 in his bag. Those are 76 big blinds, so he has enough room to play around with those. Igor Rybak on the other hand has some less space to make big moves as he took 7 big blinds with him from yesterday.
All in all, today will be an action filled day as they play down to a winner. The PokerNews live reporting will be here to bring you all the updates until a new PokerStars Festival Hamburg Main Event Champion has been determined.
