Table Of Contents
The record-breaking 2022 PokerStars and Barcelona?Casino European Poker Tour �5,300 Main Event drew 2,294 runners over two opening flights to generate a �11,125,900 prize pool, of which �1,714,000 will go to the winner of Sunday��s final table.
Just six players remain in the hunt for the top spot and Patrik Jaros holds the lead with 14,975,000. Jaros started the fifth day third in chips and was steadily growing his stack, eventually taking a seat at the unofficial final table with the chip lead. He was responsible for the elimination of Paul Fischill in ninth place to extend his lead, and stayed consistent throughout the rest of the day, putting himself in prime position for the final day.

He is followed closely by Kayhan Mokri with 14,575,000. Mokri started the final table at the bottom of the leaderboard but he fought his way back to the very top within the next level by winning multiple pots, then scoring a massive double through Scott Margereson when he managed to get paid with kings against Margereson��s queens. He will be looking for his first live victory.
Fabiano Kovalski sits in third with 12,925,000. The accomplished Brazilian clearly brought his best game to the tables during this crucial day and made multiple hero calls. He managed to send Michael Pinto to the rail in seventh place to close the day after calling Pinto��s bluff shove with only ace-high.
Giuliano Bendinelli (10,700,000), Neville Mateus (10,550,000), and Jimmy Guerrero (5,100,000) round up the top six.
The remaining players are all guaranteed �334,480 but all eyes will be on the �1,714,000 top prize and on the title.
