They will all be vying for a slice of the €1,000,000 guarantee and ultimately the title of German Poker Champion 2017.

Friedrich Raz from Switzerland finished on top yesterday with 3,180,000 but not far behind him was partypoker ambassador Boris Becker who bagged and impressive 2,839,000.
For those already entered they will bring their stack forward to Day 1b, for new entries €2,200 gets you a 1,000,000 starting stack.
Play is scheduled for eight one-hour levels with a 15-minute break every two level, and one re-buy per Day 1 is allowed.
