WPT VIENNA: BERLIN WILL HAVE TO WAIT - DEFENDING EPT CHAMP HIGHLIGHTS VIENNA FT

PICTURE: WPT

Normally, Ben Wilinofsky would be packing his bags, getting ready for his plane ride to Berlin tomorrow morning, arriving a day early he begins his title defence at EPT Berlin. Well, someone may want to call EPT officials in Berlin as Wilinosfky may be arriving a little later than originally planned.


Wilinosfky is the highlight of what should be an entertaining final table at WPT Vienna on Sunday. Wilinofsky (2012 PTPR Rank: NR) will enter final table play sitting third in chips.

The chip leader heading into Sunday's final table is Serbian Ognjen Sekularac. Sekularac (2012 PTPR Rank: 296th) has enjoyed two significant runner-up finishes in the past five months, finishing second at the High Rollers Event at the Master Classics in Amsterdam and most recently at a German Championship of Poker Main Event in Rozvadov.
