Two members of the 888poker Stream Team will be among the 13 returning players in the Mega Knockout Side Event. Initially slated to be a one-day tournament, the €165 buy-in attracted a field of 294 entries for a €44,100 prize pool and the last 13 contenders bagged up for the night. They will be back at 4pm local time to play for the biggest slice of the cash pool along with €50 bounties for each opponent they send to the rail.

Local player Carlos Avila Ortega leads the way with a stack of 930,000 but hot on his heels is David Gibson with a stack of 830,000. The second Stream Member in contention is Jordan Banfield, who has a healthy stack of 595,000 and sits in seventh place for the restart.
