As well as the conventional prize pool, the tournament also generated a bounty prize pool of €787,000. The top bounty prize was €50,000, of which there were three available and all three were collected on Day 2. Ukrainian Lurii Senchylo was the first to scoop the top bounty and ended the day in 11th place.
Despite not making the money, Mats Nylander found a nice payday as he cashed the second €50,000 prize. Jelle Moene took the final €50,000 bounty. The Dutchman finished in 26th place, collecting a €7,280 payout on top of his bounties.
Leading the way is Gab Yong Kim, who bagged 3,790,000 (76 big blinds) after a productive Day 2. The player most at risk, even more so given the bounty incentive, is Toni Kaukua, who sits with just 250,000 chips (five big blinds).
