The third and final day of Event #2: €550 Pot Limit Omaha 8-max at the 2024 World Series of Poker Europe (WSOPE) gets underway at 1 p.m. today. By the end of the day, a new name will be etched into the poker history books as a fresh bracelet winner will be crowned.
Of the final eight, it's Poland's Tomasz Kozub who has the most chips as he bagged up 4,220,000 at the culmination of Day 2. Kozub is no stranger to PLO final tables at King's Resort in Rozvadov as he won an event at the beginning of 2020 for €200,000 in the same venue.

Italy's Claudio Di Giacomo (2,905,000) and Austria's Stefan Kostner (2,680,000) and both in hot pursuit of the chip leader and those three are the only players to clear the two-million mark.
Kostner started Day 2 with just 66,000 in chips but managed to navigate his way through the field to the final table, where he sits third in chips.
Coming into the day as the short stack is Damjan Radanov, who has just 600,000 chips to his name — around ten big blinds. Hristiyan Banov doesn't have much more with 755,000, but with the ever-increasing blinds — anything can happen.
