UKIPT NOTTINGHAM: HUGE MONEY AT STAKE AT THE DUSK TILL DAWN

PICTURE: POKERSTARS

So much at stake for the final 76 players at UKIPT Nottingham's Main Event at the Dusk Till Dawn.

The first 1 million GBP guarantee event attracted a grand total of 1,625 runners, all dishing out the 1K GBP buy-in for the hopes of getting their piece of the 1.137M prizepool!

The chip leader heading into Sunday's Day 3 play is Iqbal Ahmed. Ahmed is one of only two players with chip stacks north of 1M - he has about 500K chip lead, making him the big man on top.

One name to keep a close eye on was the subject of worldwide attention a few weeks ago. 18-year old Czech phenom Veronika Pavlikova, who won the France Poker Series Evian Snowfest, holds 360,000 chips heading into Day 3 play. It will be interesting to see how Pavlikova does in her second major tournament.
