Giacomo Maisto takes the lead in the European Poker Tour after a hard fight against Philip Meulyze from Belgium. This means that Maisto will go on to day 4 of the event and it will be interesting to see how this ends up. Two of the former champions only made it to day 3 and they are now out of the game.
