Money Day Is Here!
It's that day of the tournament where there will be stalled, where there will be passion, where we'll see fireworks. We'll see people abuse the bubble, we'll see some small stacks crumble. We'll see people who make it with just a few big blinds, we'll see people who thrive and amass massive stacks. It's money day!
With just 79 players remaining, a min cash is in sight. 34 players will depart empty handed, 45 players will walk out of the Merit poker room with a minimum of €8,500 in their pockets. It's going to be exciting!
Reaching the money is one thing, and maybe all some can hope for, but most of the players will have bigger things in mind. It's that $310,000 first place prize (plus the WPT World Championships ticket worth $15,400) they're eyeing and gunning for. There are three full days of play before someone will lift the trophy and cheque, so we'll just focus on reporting who reaches the money and who doesn't today.
The plan for the day isn't written in stone yet. The idea is, like yesterday, to play five 90-minute levels. That all depends on the pace of the game however.
