Only 76 players now remain with chips at the PokerStars European Poker Tour Copenhagen main event, after another day of play concluded earlier today.

167 players were eliminated during the eventful day- according to excellent live updates provided by PokerNews.com- including such well known pros as Freddy Deeb, Luca Pagano, Johnny Lodden and Dario Minieri, however quite a few recognizable names can still be found incuding Bertrand "Elky" Grospellier, Juha Helppi, Annette Obrestad and WSOP Main Event champion Peter Eastgate.

Despite outlasting 347 of the 423 players that entered this year's Copenhagen contest, none of those pros have secured any money yet, and still need to survive another 20 bust outs before cashing and earning a chunk of the 14,212,800 DKK prize pool (about $2.6 million USD).
