Partypoker MILLIONS Online gets down to final 29
Long-time pros, Christopher Kruk, Chance Kornuth, and "BenCB" are still in.
Christopher Kruk
The prize pool at Partypoker's historical event easily exceeded the $20 million guarantee. The tournament generated 4,367 entries, who created a prize pool of $21,385,000. The fortunate winner will walk away with a whopping $2,729,376 which is not surprisingly the biggest-ever payout at an online poker tournament. Other than the champion, the rest of the final four will also take home seven-figure scores, as the runner-up will receive $1,910,562.50, the third-place finisher $1,364,687.50, while the fourth placer $1,091,750.
By the end of Day 2 to the field has reduced to only 29, who are all guaranteed for at least a $65,505 payday. The current chip leader is "wheatforsheep", an unknown player, who resides in Mexico. He accumulated 566,295,284. The mysterious grinder is followed by another anonymous player from Malta, "j2805667" with 336,914,608. The current third is Austria's "Albert_77" who will return to Day 3 with 299,620,916.

One of the best online tournament specialists, "BenCB" is also still in it to win it, but he'll need to get a good start, as the stack belonging to his "mwhldwn" moniker is only 64,129,186, which is just over 18 big blinds.
