PokerStars EPT Berlin: PokerStrategist Chip Leader
Day 2 of the PokerStars European Poker Tour is over and the field is down to 124 players. Swiss PokerStrategist Stefan "YrrsiN" Huber is the leader, having 1,087,500 chips. However, the six Team PokerStrategy.com members have been eliminated today.
A total of 945 players joined the PokerStars EPT in Berlin, but after Day 2 was over, only 124 of them were left standing. The prize pool is €4,725,000 and the bubble has already burst, as top 144 players get in the money. Also, there is an impressive €1,000,000 waiting for the winner.
The current chip leader is Swiss PokerStrategist Stefan "yrrsin" Huber, with a stack of 1,087,500 - that's almost 300,000 more than the Day 2 second place finisher, Johannes "psier" Strassmann, who has 794,500 chips. The play will resume today at 12:00 and the blind levels will start at 3,000/6,000 with 500 ante. For the full overview of the Day 2 chip counts, click here.
