Welcome to Day 3 of the �5,300 EPT Barcelona Main Event

EPT Trophy
EPT Trophy

The bubble was long on Day 2, but the 303 players remaining in the �5,300 Main Event at PokerStars European Poker Tour (EPT) Barcelona have reached the money.

Now that this important step is behind them and everyone has locked up a minimum cash prize of �8,850, the next goal will be to run as deep as they can in the tournament when Day 3 kicks off at 12 p.m. local time. One of them will outlast the field of 2,120 entrants and take the �1,488,000 first-place prize.

Day 2 saw Eduard Barsegyan collect the largest stack in the room as he ended the day as the chip leader. He's joined at the top by Ioannis Zachmanidis and the �2,200 Estrellas Poker Tour High Roller runner-up Antoine Labat, who also finished among the big stacks.

Day 3 will begin with approximately 11 minutes remaining in Level 15 at blinds of 2,000/4,000 with a 4,000 big blind ante. A total of five 90-minute levels will be played today, with 20-minute breaks at the end of every level. Shot clocks will also be introduced so players will receive six time banks at the beginning of the day, each worth 30 seconds. The action will once again be streamed on the PokerStars YouTube and Twitch channels on a 30-minute delay.
