Regardless of where things end up for Day 2 chip leader Alexander Baier, he should be pleased with the journey as his entry was a freeroll on top of another freeroll.
Baier won a three-month subscription via a cash promo via Pokercode Coach Steffen Sontheimer. He then won a package via a second promo via Pokercode MTT Coach Simon Rønnow made available to the Pokercode's Slack community.
Baier is a student and had little money to his name coming into the trip. He was even worried about how to pay for his parking ticket in Bratislava. So although it would a zero to hero story if Baier wins, it is still a healthy boost to the German's bankroll regardless of how things end up.
