€2,200 Eureka High Roller
Día 1b empezado
It's the fifth day of the 2024 PokerStars European Poker Tour (EPT) Prague, and Day 1b of the €2,200 Eureka High Roller will kick off at 7 p.m. local time in the beautiful Hilton Prague.
Day 1a is well underway, with registration remaining open, while Day 1b will offer players a final chance to bag chips and advance to Day 2. Last year, this event saw 1,478 entries, and another sizable field is already shaping up this time. With the Eureka Main Event breaking records, it's easy to predict that we might see a new record for this event as well.
Grzegorz Kozieja conquered a tough field of 1,478 entries last year, claiming the title and an impressive €474,510 prize.

Players will begin at Level 1 with blinds set at 100/200 and a 200 big blind ante, starting with 30,000 chips. Each level lasts 20 minutes, with a 20-minute break every five to six levels. Late registration remains open until the start of Level 11, and players are allowed unlimited reentries.
Day 1 will continue until the money is reached, with the bubble expected to burst when 15% of the field remains. Those advancing to Day 2 will secure a min-cash, with play resuming tomorrow to crown a new champion.

Leonidas Kostagiolas opened from the button to 500 and got a call from Aziz Efe in the small blind, while Fintan Hand folded from the big blind.
The flop came 8♦Q♥4♥, and Efe called a continuation bet of 1,100 from Kostagiolas.
Both players checked the 7♦ on the turn. When the dealer put out the 8♥ on the river, Efe checked again, and Kostagiolas grabbed a good amount of chips to make a pot-sized bet. Efe went into the tank but eventually folded his hand.
