Yori EpskampCan Monica Vaka Become the First Female Unibet Open Winner?
At noon local time, Casino Copenhagen in the beautiful capital of Denmark welcomes back 13 players for the final day of the 2017 Unibet Open Copenhagen DDK 8,250 Main Event. It's the 40th edition of the popular series, which is also in its jubilee tenth season. All remaining players have already locked up DDK 44,500 - roughly €6,007 - but all eyes are set on the massive first place prize of DDK 562,300 (€75,996).
Chipleader after two days of intense action is Monica Vaka. The Norwegian player needs one more pay jump to already claim the biggest cash prize of her career. Vaka's run is made all the more impressive by the fact that she is seven months pregnant. Vaka starts from pole position with 1,881,000 in her quest to become the first ever female Unibet Open Main Event champion.
Behind Vaka, Poland's Tomasz Kozub (1,754,000). Estonia's Kaarel Lepik (1,632,000) and Faroese hopeful Sigurd Carlsson (1,469,000) also swing impressive stacks. Another dangerous contender is Peter Harkes, winner of 2011 Unibet Open Riga. Harkes starts with 747,000 on the final day and is just a double-up away from the top of the pack.
