€200,000 and WSOP Bracelet Awaits Winner of WSOPE €550 NLH Colossus
Get the trumpet, drums and confetti cannons ready as the latest champion from the 2023 World Series of Poker Europe will be determined later today. At 2 p.m. local time, the final day of Event 5: €550 NLH Colossus gets underway, and the remaining field of 16 will play down until a winner is crowned.
Awaiting the eventual victor is the first place spoils, which consist of €200,000, entry into the €10,350 WSOPE Main Event and the coveted gold bracelet. From those that are still in contention of grabbing the lion's share of the €1,632,1000 prize pool, only Samuel Stranak (4,800,000) has tasted victory under the WSOP umbrella before. The Slovakian went the distance in Event 4: €2K Pot-Limit Omaha at King's Resort in Rozvadov in 2021, netting him €101,764 for his biggest career score. Stranak will need to finish inside the top two if he wants to eclipse that figure.
The rest of the field is made up of some seasoned veterans, up-and-comers and relatively unknowns. Dennis Magro (10,000,000) currently leads the pack of survivors and can be considered to be in the first category, with tournament results dating back to 2009.
Day 1a chip leader Xhavit Berisha remains in the upper echelons of the chip counts and brings in 8,650,000. At one point on Day 2, it looked like he was heading out of the door, but a timely double and a period of sun-running kept his WSOP dreams alive.
Rounding out the top three stacks is Ermanno Di Nicola (8,275,000). Like Stranak, the Italian is no stranger to the bright lights of a WSOP final table, having made two of them in his career. Coincidentally, he made the same FT that Stranak won, and now they meet again in the No Limit Hold'em streets two years later.
Arguably the most accomplished players that still have chips are Tobias Peters, Vadzim Lipauka and Andrej Desset. The trio are the only players to have breached the $1 million in live tournament earnings, with Peters at the top with $2,727,111.

Loire Takes the First Hand
Nível 33
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
On the outer table, Ermanno Di Nicola opened to 425,000 from middle position and was called by Cristian David from the hijack. Julien Loire also defended his big blind.
Di Nicola continued for 550,000 on the 10♦6♦6♠ flop and only Loire called.
Loire then check-called for 850,000 on the Q♣ turn. The 10♣ river double board the board. Loire led out for 2,600,000 and Di Nicola wasted little time in folding.

Salerno Doesn't Back Down From the Chip Leader
Nível 33
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Elia Salerno raised to 450,000 in the hijack and chip leader Dennis Magro defended his big blind.
The flop came A♦7♠3♠ and Salerno continued for 550,000. Magro then raised to 1,100,000 and Salerno quickly moved all in for 3,475,000.
Magro confirmed the amount and spent a few minutes in the tank before flicking in a chip to signify a call.
Elia Salerno: A♠K♣
Dennis Magro: A♥5♠
Both players had flopped top pair, but Salerno was ahead with his king-kicker. The A♣ turn gave both players trips, but Magro missed the 8♠ river as Salerno earned a massive double up to begin the day.
"I can't fold. I was hoping you had a flush draw," Magro said.

Fabian Asks for Advice
Nível 33
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Alain Saka opened the Q♠2♥ from the hijack to 425,000. Fabian Stefan called from the cutoff with 7♠7♥. Xhavit Berisha woke up with A♥A♣ from the small blind and he three-bet to 1,300,000. Saka got rid of his hand
Fabian and Berisha then got into some table talk.
"What is the best decision? What should I do?" asked Fabian. "Fold," replied a truthful Berisha.
Fabian took Berisha's advice and folded. The Kosovan then tabled his aces.
