Brammer and Le Hold Nearly Two-Thirds of Chips Heading Into Final Day of PokerStars Open Manchester Main Event
It's time for the Final Day of the PokerStars Open Manchester Main Event, running at the Deansgate Hotel and hosted by Hippodrome Casino. Six players return to the final table to compete for their share of the £1,000,000 prize pool, each eyeing up the top prize and the shiny PS trophy.
UK pro Christopher Brammer returns as the chip leader with 8,725,000 chips, just slightly ahead of 2023 UKIPT Blackpool winner Tuan Le, who sits back down with 8,250,000. Between them, Brammer and Le have almost two-thirds of all the chips in play.
Still, all it takes is a double up or two and it's anyone's game. Don't rule out any of the other competitors as the event plays down to a winner. Hasmukh Khodiyara, Mohamed Kerkeni, Adam Andersson and Sinead Davenport will all need to spin it up to claim the top spots.
