The fourth Poker Masters $50,000 Preliminary Final Table gets cards in the air at 3:30 pm ET, exclusively on PokerGO, and it’s nearly an all American affair – save for Steffen Sontheimer – the overall Poker Masters Purple Jacket™ leader. He advanced to his third final table of the week, while Doug Polk and Jake Schindler are returning for back-to-back final tables.
The event drew 39 entries for a $1.95 million prize pool – the smallest of the preliminary tournaments so far. Only six players make the money on Sunday, meaning one unfortunate player bubbles on the PokerGO stream.
Seat | Chip Count | Country |
1. Steffen Sontheimer | 689,000 | Germany |
2. Doug Polk | 1,357,000 | USA |
3. Brandon Adams | 1,187,000 | USA |
4. Justin Bonomo | 525,000 | USA |
5. Jake Schindler | 343,000 | USA |
6. Zach Clark | 149,000 | USA |
7. David Peters | 636,000 | USA |
Sontheimer has the chance to run away with the Purple Jacket with a first or second place finish on Sunday. He’s totaled $1.1 million so far with a win in Event #2 and fourth place in Event #1. Polk finished in fifth place for $144,000 and Schindler earned $312,000 on Saturday and both could be contenders depending on how they finish in Event #4.
Brandon Adams, Justin Bonomo, Zack Clark and David Peters fill out the final table – all looking of their first cash of the Series. Join commentators Ali Nejad and David Williams in the commentary booth, as Maria Ho anchors from the tournament floor only on PokerGo for the final table at 3:30 pm ET.
The rest of the Poker Masters players have a day off Sunday to enjoy the NFL action before the $100,000 Finale kicks off on Monday at 5 pm ET with PokerGO going live at 8:30 pm ET until the end of play.
