Marvin Rettenmaier
254 players in total bought in for WPT Baden, and we have now reached the final six.

Vladimir Bozinovic is the overnight chip leader, but right behind him is World Poker Tour MVP Marvin ' xcrash154' Rettenmaier.

'Mad' Marvin is on the brink of his third World Poker Tour title, a feat which would put him at joint top for record number of WPT wins, alongside Gus Hansen and Carlos Mortensen.

Where Marvin would stand out, however, is that were he to win, he will have captured three WPT titles in less than a year. He previously won the WPT Championship in May 2012, and followed that up by winning WPT Cyprus in August 2012.

Each man is guaranteed at least $47,820 for their efforts, but the winner will walk away with $271,258.

The action resumes at 14:00 CET, and a live stream with a 30-minute delay begins at 14:30 CET.
