The 2024 PokerStars European Poker Tour Monte Carlo continues today, with Day 2 of the biggest buy-in tournament on the schedule, the �100,000 EPT Super High Roller, due to begin at 12:30 p.m. local time at the beautiful Sporting Monte-Carlo.

Some of the most accomplished and talented players in the world gathered yesterday to do battle on the felt for Day 1, which attracted a total of 58 entries, generating a current prize pool of �5,627,160, with 29 players bagging and tagging for Day 2.

Jacob Amsellem of France, who accumulated 1,094,000 chips and comes into Day 2 with over 180 big blinds, holds the chip lead, closely followed by British star Ben Heath (1,092,000) and defending champion Alex Kulev of Bulgaria (1,091,000).

Plenty of other notable names remain in the mix, including PokerStars Ambassador Sam Grafton (490,000), Dan Smith (479,000), Adrian Mateos (350,000) and Steve O'Dwyer (289,000).

With late registration open until the start of Day 2, and any players taking that option entering with over 40 big blinds, it is expected that the prize pool will swell further. As at the time of writing the field had increased to 30, with Leonardo Drago reentering after Day 1 concluded.

15 percent of the overall field will make the money, with the final prize pool and payouts due to be confirmed shortly after late registration closes.

Players will be returning to 60-minute levels with blinds of 3,000/6,000 and a 6,000 big blind ante.

The PokerNews live reporting team will be bringing you all the action from this prestigious tournament, so be sure to stay tuned to see who progresses to Day 3 for a shot at the title.
