PokerStars Ambassador Ramon Colillas is currently second in the standings, and when he returns, he will be sitting directly to the right of Hvam. The Spaniard is looking to secure the second-biggest cash of his career after his 2019 victory in the $25k PokerStars Players Championship.

Bracelet winner Hugo Pingray is the only other player coming into the day with over 3 million chips, while two other bracelet winners are also still in the field with Niall Farrell and Justin Saliba. They begin the day as the short stacks, but will still have plenty of room to make a run as the shortest stack is still good for over 25 big blinds when the day begins.
