Unibet Open Bucharest: Nine Players for €65,830

It's the big day at the JW Marriott Bucharest Grand Hotel! In just a few hours, one player will be crowned as the winner of the 2023 Unibet Open Bucharest Main Event, and win the €65,830 first-place prize. But there is still a long way to go, as nine players out of 360 entrants are still in the competition.

Among the finalists, Eduard Norel will start the final table in first place as he bagged the chip lead after Day 2 with 1,970,000 chips, almost 80 big blinds. He is closely followed by Max Broens (1,760,000), and by Romania's Dragos Anton (1,725,000). Dwayne Sluis (1,425,000) and Day 1 overall chip leader Robert Burlacu (1,260,000) will also be back with more than one million chips.

In the second half of the chip counts, Ivan Alin Constantin will start the final table with more than 30 blinds (920,000). Same situation for Sorin Flutur (855,000). But it will be a bit more complicated for Bjorn Samuelsson (470,000) and Bart Van Dijk (310,000), who'll both be back with less than 20 blinds.
