4,091 Views • on 16/7/15

Fifteen days is (apparently) a lot in a poker world and there's been quite a few developments that we need to make sure our players are aware of. Don't worry thought, it is all pretty much good news.

First two

weeks of July have come and gone. Despite of high temperatures in a big part of the world, the action at the tables doesn't seem to be subsiding, at least if our $40k race is any indicator.

Top 350 $40,000 Race

It isn't often that one player takes such a big advantage over the rest of the field but UltimateGrinder really justified his alias thus far. He is currently far ahead of the rest of the field with $14,300 in rake, with second place zonipoi sitting on $5.7k. Both of them are looking at the nice payday however as, all unchanged, they will take home $3,000 and $2,250 respectively.

Current average return of the race stands at around 33%
As of today, only $44 is needed to get your name on the prize list
There is still 15 day left to make sure you get the maximum possible return
