Defending Champion Danny Tang Through to €10,300 High Roller Day 2
Day 2 of the PokerStars European Poker Tour €10,300 High Roller gets underway at 12:30 pm with 99 players advancing from Day 1.
With late registration open until the start of Day 2, that number should grow somewhat, and PokerNews will get you confirmation of the final number of entrants as soon as possible. The prizepool and payouts should be available shortly after play gets underway here at the Hilton Prague.
Several big names are still in contention, including defending champion Danny Tang. Tang suffered a setback late in the day when his pocket aces were cracked by Dimitar Danchev in a three-way pot also involving Steve O'Dwyer. However, Tang rallied to bag around 100,000 to take through to Day 2.
Other players to keep an eye on include overnight chip leader Gianluca Speranza who bagged 365,500 in chips, as well as Bahram Chobineh (352,000) and Maxi Lehmanski (330,500) who are the only three players over 300,000 in chips.
The two €25,000 Single-Day High Roller champions Thomas Boivin (70,000) and Corentin Ropert (170,500) will also return, as well as the first €10,300 High Roller champion of the festival Akin Tuna (117,500).
