Poker Masters – Orpen Kisacikoglu Leads at NLH $25k Final Table

The race for the Poker Masters Purple Jacket is getting more exciting from event to event, and Sam Soverel can now take the lead on Chance Kornuth’s Leaderboard.

Yesterday, the PokerGo Studio hosted its eighth event, a $25,000 No-Limit Hold ’em tournament, as part of the 2019 Poker Masters. It bought in 29 players and by the end of the late reg. we had a respectable 41 entries, which means $1,025,000 in the prize pool.

Kornuth, the current leader of the Leaderboard Chance, was unfortunately out of the game shortly after the end of the Late Reg. So his pursuers Sean Winter and especially Sam Soverel have the chance to catch up or even overtake him.

Also, Manig Löser bought into this tournament, but he had to say goodbye to the rail before the paid places.

As chip leader of the final 6 players, Orpen Kisacikoglu returns to the table today with 1,640,000 chips, followed by George Wolff with 950,000 and Sam Soverel with 920,000 chips. Each of the remaining participants already has prize money of $61,500 for sure, and a proud $369,000 is waiting for the champion.

The tournament continues today in Level 18 at blinds 15,000/30,000 and 30,000 Big Blind Ante, the button is at Orpen Kisacikoglu. Starting at noon local time, the tournament will be broadcast on PokerGO, or you can follow the live blog on PokerCentral:
