Nine players out of a field of 465 entries remain in the 2020 PokerStars Spring Championship of Online Poker SCOOP-96-H: $5,200 NLHE [8-Max, Main Event 2nd Chance] and all have their eyes set on the biggest-possible slice of the $2,325,000 prize pool. So far, the nine finalists have locked up $42,195.96 for their efforts while the winner will take home $416,741.68 and the high stakes SCOOP title.
Ukraine's Andrey "Anjeyyy" Novak returns as the biggest stack with 25,969,709 and he has already earned his maiden SCOOP title earlier in the festival when he took down SCOOP 44-H: $5,200 NLHE [Sunday HR SE], Novak topped a field of 264 entries to claim a top prize of $253,819.24.
Canada's hopes lay on Pascal "Pass_72" Lefrancois (21,477,585) and Timothy "Tim0thee" Adams (18,866,198) while Brazil may earn another SCOOP title in 2020 with Will "hellzito" Arruda in contention, who has the fourth-biggest stack of 13,225,664. Alfred "kzzon" Karlsson (10,705,721) and Netherlands-based Portuguese poker pro Silvio "silskyer" Costa (10,320,168) follow behind, and they are separated by fewer than two big blinds.
Two players from Moldova reached the final in Pavel "silentm0de" Plesuv (7,452,915) and "temka99" (4,523,896), and the shortest stack belongs to highly decorated SCOOP, WCOOP and three-time Sunday Million champ Artem "veeea" Vezhenkov (3,707,144). Plesuv will seek for a repeat victory after he beat a field of 501 entries in SCOOP 73-H: $2,100 NLHE [Sunday Warm-Up SE], for a payday of $177,964.64.
