The second-to-last stop on season four of the PokerStars European Poker Tour is in San Remo, Italy, and it is close to naming its next EPT champion, who will take home $1.3 million. The buy-in for this event was €5,000 (approximately $7,200).

Of the 700 players who started, 208 players entered day 2. The money bubble popped with 72nd place, and day 2 ended with 31 players left. The chip leader going into day 3 was Jason Mercier of Fort Lauderdale, Florida, with 684,000 in chips. Also near the top of the chip counts was Team PokerStars pro Dario Minieri, with 595,000 in chips.

Day 3 action began today, and eliminations came fast and furious. Todd Brunson was recently sent to the rail in 24th place. At the time of this publication, there are only 16 players left. Follow all of the action through EPT PokerStars blogs on CardPlayer.com by clicking here.
