Leading the charge is Romania's Andrei "ragAAAila19" Boghean leads the pack with nearly two times as many chips as the nearest follower as he will start the final table with 5,538,837. Christian "WATnlos" Rudolph sits in second place for the second EPT Online High Roller in a row with 2,794,731 to his name and three contenders behind that are within four big blinds including Eelis "EEE27" Pärssinen (2,368,588), Joao "Naza114" Vieira (2,297,306) and Artur "mararthur1" Martirosian (2,102,161).
