SCOOP-74-L: $109 NLHE [8-Max, Main Event], $3M Gtd
Day: 3
The Penultimate Day of the SCOOP-74-L: $109 NLHE Main Event is Here!
After two days of intense action in the 2020 Spring Championship of Online Poker (SCOOP), a gargantuan field of 46,238 entries has been whittled down to its final 159 contenders. The survivors have already seen a great return on investment on their $109 buy-in, as $2,353 is awaiting them should they be the first to bust today.
The real money is at the top, as always, and the first-place prize of $434,762 will no doubt be on everyone's minds. Before that's up for grabs, the remaining players will first play down to the final table of 9, after which action will be suspended for the day. Blinds are already in level 45 with the blinds at 100,000/200,000 and an ante of 25,000.
Czech hopeful "larvovec" will return as the overwhelming chipleader with 44,059,712, nearly double that of his nearest challenger maaciehj. Notables such as Joep "Pappe_ruk" van den Bijgaart (3,260,693) and Dietrich "2pacnrw16" Fast (11,999,415) will also be back on the penultimate day.
Cards will be back in the air at 7 p.m. CET (5 p.m. GMT / 1 p.m. EDT). Blind levels are at 15 minutes so expect fast and furious action as we get closer to the big money today!
