Moneymaker Leads Moneymaker's Road to PSPC 2020
After four starting flights at Moneymaker's Road to PSPC 2020 here at the Hippodrome Casino at Le Meridien, Piccadilly the remaining players will resume for Day 2 with the field all in the money.
The tournament attracted a total of 464 entries and after each starting flight played down to 15% just 71 players remain, and there is a familiar name sitting atop the chip counts.
After Simon Green (Day 1a - 347,000), Savvas Mitsikouridis (Day 1b - 498,500) and Stephen Green (Day 1c - 588,000) emerged as chip leader of their respective flights, Chris Moneymaker soared to within touching distance of 600,000 after bagging 597,000 to lead the remaining players.
Moneymaker had told us yesterday that his luck so far on the Moneymaker Tour hasn't been as good as last season, but perhaps this is a sign his luck is about to change.
Both he and the remaining field are guaranteed ￡217 with a first prize of ￡10,454 and grab a coveted Platinum Pass worth more than €26,000 (approx. $30,000).
