| Chip Leader Martins Adeniya |
After 5 long days, the PokerStars EPT London has gone from 691 players to 8. The 8 remaining players have all needed a combination of luck, skill, and stamina to have made it this far- and they'll need even more of those things if they hope to win £750,000 and the title of EPT Champion.
Day 5 of the tournament started with 24 players, lead by Mattias Bergstrom of Sweden. Bergstrom nearly doubled his stack over the course of the day, and he will enter the final table in 2nd place with 3,620,000 chips.
The chip leader heading into the final table is Martins Adeniya of the UK. Adeniya entered Day 5 in 9th place, and he has finished towards the top of the chip counts each day of play. He'll bring 4,736,000 chips to the final table.
PokerStrategy.com is proud to have two players to root for at the final table. Benny 'psychobenny' Spindler enters the table in 3rd place with 3,435,000 chips, and Black Member Andre 'ganstarapper' Klebanov is in 4th place with 2,730,000. Both players are Germans with tons of experience on the felt. Good luck guys!
Juan Manuel Pastor will be the sole representative of both Team PokerStars Pro and Spain at the final table. He'll enter in 6th place with 1,915,000 chips.
American poker pro Steve O'Dwyer is in 7th place with 1,250,000 chips, but he has plenty of experience on his side- over $1 million in career live tournament earnings.
Two of the most noteworthy bustouts from Day 5 were Joao Barbosa (17th) and Sebastian Blom (24th).
This tournament will not be streamed live, but you can rail it via the PokerStars Blog.
