A German national currently residing in Vienna, Austria, Artur Koren is a regular on the EPT circuit and the possessor of some excellent results, including a €38,590 score for winning the €2k Six Max at EPT Vienna and third place for €56,850 in the €1k side event at EPT Barcelona. He has over $350,000 in lifetime live tournament cashes. He won his seat on PokerStars.fr.
Kevin Killeen was catapulted to European poker fame when he took down UKIPT Dublin earlier this year for €87,700. He had previously mostly played online as a mid to high stakes tournament specialist – among his biggest cashes was $33,000 in the Sunday Second Chance on PokerStars. Killeen is mostly resident in Dublin, although he spent some time in Mexico following his UKIPT win and hopes to return there in the near future.
Spanish player Pablo Gordillo is best known for his fourth place finish at EPT Vienna where he picked up a hefty €262,150. More recently the young player has been making a bit of a splash online - one glorious night on PokerStars, he managed to win no fewer than three tournaments. He also came third in a €200 NL side event at Estrellas Madrid in January for € 2,421, and cashed for €12,000 in a Sunday Especial on PokerStars.es.
The 25-year-old from Dortmund won the €1k NL Turbo Bounty at EPT Barcelona in August for €39,905. Pauli, who also finished fourth in the $2,500 Razz event at the World Series last year, has more than $230k in lifetime tournament winnings.
23-year-old Polish player Mroczek is an EPT regular whose best result to date was winning a €1k side event at EPT Barcelona last season. He also won a €200 turbo event at this season’s EPT Sanremo and finished second in a €200 rebuy event at the same festival. Mroczek won his seat to EPT London in a live satellite, and was the chip leader going into Day 4.
Welcome back to our ongoing coverage of the 2014 PokerStars.com EPT Season 11 London £4,250 Main Event! The tournament field has been whittled down from 675 entries to the official final table of eight. Sebastian Pauli holds a significant chip lead going into the final table with 6.13 million, more than 3.5 million more than the next closest stack. Pauli's domination on Day 5 has put him in strong contention to join the ranks of EPT Main Event winners.
Pauli and the rest of the final table, however, are joined by two men who have been here before. Team PokerStars Pro and EPT Season 6 Deauville Main Event champion Jake Cody and EPT Season 6 Berlin Main Event champion Kevin MacPhee are both owners of seats at this prestigious final table. Both players have been in this situation before and have experience on their side. If either Cody or MacPhee win the title, they will join the likes of Victoria Coren Mitchell to become the second-ever two-time EPT Main Event champion. MacPhee is set up in solid position, returning to the final table in the third chip position with 2.43 million. Cody, on the other hand, is returning sixth in chips with 2.156 million to his name.
The talk seems to be that these players will be in for a long haul today as they're returning to the felt remarkably deep stacked. Pauli's massive chip lead will see him returning to the felt with 153 big blinds to his name. On the opposite end of the spectrum sits Pablo Gordillo who bagged up just 975,000. While that may not seem like much in comparison, he's still sitting on 24 big blinds with a lot of room for play.
Here's a look at how the final table stacks up:
| Seat | Player | Country | Chips |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | [Removed:119] | France | 2,340,000 |
| 2 | Jake Cody | UK | 2,156,000 |
| 3 | Kevin MacPhee | USA | 2,430,000 |
| 4 | Artur Koren | Germany | 2,420,000 |
| 5 | Kevin Killeen | Ireland | 2,470,000 |
| 6 | Pablo Gordillo | Spain | 975,000 |
| 7 | Sebastian Pauli | Germany | 6,130,000 |
| 8 | Jakub Mroczek | Poland | 1,325,000 |
