Season One PPT League winner Toni Merivuori looks to be putting recent struggles behind him in Vienna, where he is looking to build on a side event cash with a stronger show in the Main Event.Having been the model of consistency across four events in 2009/10, the Finn (pictured right) struggled to negotiate the fields in Vilamoura and London and admitted his confidence had been hit as a result.
“I was here for a few days and decided to play in the €100 NL Hold’em side event last night and I ended up finishing 6th for around €860,” he explained.
“I was delighted with that, even though some friends had a percentage of my action, because it gave me a lot of confidence ahead of today’s tournament.
“I’m now sitting on 50,000 chips and it’s the first time I’ve had a big stack in Season Two, so I’m feeling good.
"Twice I've had Aces and both times I've managed to get my opponent all-in, once pre-flop and once on a Queen high board, so I'm running good. Let's hope it continues!"
