PARTOUCHE MAIN: TRICKETT, KOVALCHUK IN DEEP AT FINAL TABLE

SOURCE: PARTOUCHEPOKERTOUR.com

We are down to the final four in Cannes! The Partouche Poker Tour Season 4 Main Event is going down to the wire and Sunday is the big day!

Saturday saw the final nine competitors return to action after making it to final table play back in September. Five were eliminated on Saturday - they include Mads Wissing who lost all of his chips in no time. Wissing was chip leader mid-way through today's play but those chips quickly disappeared.

Roger Hairabedian, Mustapha Kanit, Alex Dovzhenko and Alexandre Coussy all followed Wissing to the money cage on Saturday.

This leaves Sam Trickett and Oleksii Kovalchuk as the two big names still alive at the final table. Trickett has had a very solid 2011 on the poker circuit - Kovalchuk burst onto the scene with a win this summer at the WSOP (and an Italian Poker Tour win) - and a win would place him into the PTPR Top 15 Player of the Year Leaderboard.
