Die EPT Sochi nimmt so langsam Fahrt auf. Während das Aufgebot für das EPT National Finale mit 16 Spielern steht, startet heute neben dem EPT National Finale auch das EPT Sochi Main Event.
Am Finaltag der EPT National geht es heute um RUB 7.770.000 (ca. $135,000) für den Sieger, obendrauf gibt es für den Gewinner einen Platinum Pass im Wert von $30.000, der für das im Januar 2019 stattfindende PokerStars Players No-Limit Hold’em Championship Event berechtigt.
Die besten Aussichten auf den Sieg hat aktuell der Tscheche Matous Houzvicek, der sich in einem Spielerfeld voller Russen behauptete und nach zwei Turniertagen Chipleader ist. Von sechzehn Finalisten ist Houzvicek der einzige Nicht-Russe. Zuvor hatten bei dem Turnier 705 Entries für einen Preispool von RUB 41.031.000 (etwa $716.500) gesorgt.
