ROMAN HEROLD LEADS FINAL 17 AT EPT BERLIN
A short five level day at EPT Berlin reduced a field of 55 to just 17 and German player Roman Herold leads the way with 4,485,000. He only ascended to the top of the pile at the very end of play when he won a huge 2,000,000 pot against Alexander Helbig, who was the chip leader at the time. Both players had two-pair, Herold rivered the better two-pair having been hitherto chasing the nut flush draw to go with his top pair.
They lead a chasing pack that includes, well no one of much note to be honest. It was a bad day for the established names as they either finished with a below average stack or were eliminated. In the former camp are Olivier Busquet (736,000), Calvin Anderson (561,000) and EPT7 Tallinn champion Kevin Stani (862,000). With blinds starting at 15,000 – 30,000 ante they aren’t in panic mode just yet but will be searching for an early double up in their quest for the first prize of €880,000.
And, at least they have a shot at it unlike many established names whose chances were reduced to dust on Day 4. Sandra Naujoks (54th), Ronny Voth (50th), Boris Becker (49th), Liv Boeree (48th), Aku Joentausta (31st), Bryn Kenney (30th) and Thang Duc Nguyen (23rd) were all eliminated. |
