Jacobson Builds Lead and Legacy at EPT Vilamoura
Jacobson, who made third at EPT Budapest in 2008, second at WPT Venice in 2009 and fourth in one of the $1,500 No-Limit Hold’em events at the WSOP this summer, will be looking to add to his $933k in career tournament earnings heading into Day 4 in Portugal Wednesday.
However, Season 1 EPT Grand Final winner Rob Hollink sits dangerously close in a bid to become the first ever two-time EPT main event champion.
UB pro Brandon Cantu led after two days, but busted on Day 3.
Jacobson qualified for the event through a PokerStars satellite.
A total of 384 players entered the €5,300 EPT Vilamoura main event, creating a €1.8 million prize pool and making it the biggest tournament ever held in Portugal.
First pays €467,835.
The tournament will run through Thursday at Casino Solverde on Portugal's Algarve coast.
