Sinclair Continues His EPT Dominance
After Day 3, it's none other than London's Jack Sinclair atop the leaderboard with 29,625,000. He made almost all the right moves today, calling all-ins with ace high, winning flips when it mattered most, and hitting a set to win the biggest pot of the tournament so far. Sinclair has been on an EPT tear recently, finishing second in both the €1,100 Estrellas Poker Tour Main Event at the 2022 PokerStars and Barcelona© Casino European Poker Tour and the EPT London Main Event. He looks to use his chip lead tomorrow to bring home a victory this time.
Other Action of the Day
Several players are hot on Sinclair's heels, and they each made plenty of impressive plays to get where they are. Chip leader entering the day was Quentin Guivarch (8,775,000). His stack fell short several times, but always bounced back when he needed to, winning when way behind and by making trips against top-two pair.
Speaking of resilience, Leonardo Romeo (22,000,000) had his share of tests throughout the day. After building a big stack, he had to overcome both a two-outer and a one-outer to lose two massive pots, yet battled back each time to end the day in second place going into tomorrow. He was also responsible for ending PokerStars Ambassador Alejandro Lococo's day by picking off a bluff to send him home.
Action will pick up Monday, December 12 at 12 p.m. local time in Level 35 with blinds of 200,000/400,000/400,000.
PokerNews will of course be right there to bring you all of the action as this one closes out on Monday, so tune in then to follow this one to its exciting conclusion and see if Sinclair can find a first-place finish.
