Who Will Walk Away with the MAD 330,000 (€30,421)Top Prize in the Wonder8 Marrakech?

The 2019 Marrakech Wonder 8 began with 211 entrants, including 78 reentries but is now down to the unofficial final table of nine. Leading the way is the French player Youssef Aananouch who bagged up 2,070,000, but right behind him hides the talkative Moroccan pro Anas Tadini with 2,050,000 for a final table that will for sure bring a lot of action.

GRJ (Julian Galan), who bagged as the chipleader at the end of Day 1 managed to keep his comfortable stack throughout Day 2 and will start playing today as the third biggest stack with 1,690,000.

Here's a look at how things stack up at the final table, which will be live streamed with a 30-minute delay:

The Spanish player Willerminho was the final bustout of the night and finished in 10th place (35,000 MAD). He check-raised all-in with two pair on the turn but only to see Youssef Aananouch was holding the straight and the unofficial final table was reached.

The players will return at 3 pm local time to contest the title and play will resume at blinds 20,000/ 40,000 ante 40,000, for 45 minutes levels.
