Welcome to the Final Day of the 2015 WSOP Circuit Rozvadov Main Event

The event recommences in one hour from now at 14:00 local time and all remaining players already have €4,680 locked up for their efforts, while the coveted WSOP Circuit gold ring comes with a first-place prize of €206,927.
The event eclipsed its guarantee to generate a prize pool of €1,021,911 and Alexandar Denishev is in the lead with 1,633,000 in chips, closely followed by 2015 WPT National Vienna champion Zoltan Gal (1,572,000) and Süleyman Erdar Erdar (1,569,000). The other chip millionaires are Michael Magalashvili (1,394,000), Marius-Alexandru Gicovanu (1,220,000), Andrew King (1,112,000) and Quirin Zech (1,048,000).

Action restarts with level 24 and blinds of 10,000-20,000 with a running ante of 3,000, which immediately puts 10 of the remaining hopefuls under pressure with 20 big blinds or less.
