Day 3 Beginning Shortly

The largest poker tournament ever to be held in Germany reached the money yesterday with about 50 minutes left in the last level of the day. Out of the 945 players who ponied up the €5,300 to play in EPT Berlin, 144 of them received a return on their investment. Right now, it's Stefan Huber who is the front runner to be the biggest beneficiary as he holds the chip lead coming into Day 3 with 1,087,500.

Plenty of big names still remain in the field of 124 that will be returning in a short while for play. Team PokerStars Pro will be represented by William Thorson, Jude Ainsworth, Marcel Luske, Julian Thew, Vlad Zguba, Benjamin Kang and Johannes Strassmann. There also exists 31 PokerStars qualifiers.

The plan is to play down to only 24 players remain. Yesterday saw a fury of eliminations left and right to take the number from 484 to 124, but today should be a lot slower paced. But as always, anything could happen.

Stay tuned to PokerNews for all the live coverage from the floor at EPT Berlin as things are scheduled to kick off at 12:00 p.m. local time.
