Level 20 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

The race is on for a third Unibet Open title for Dan Murariu. With his experience, he navigated through the last hours and built his stack without too much risk. Just now, he opened to 45,000 and Eugen Chiva three-bet to 110,000. Murariu clicked to 265,000 and Chiva folded after the clock was called on him.

That brought up the stack of Murariu to one million.
