Remaining 273 Players Return to Portomaso Casino for Day 2 of MPF �550 Grand Event
Welcome to Day 2 of the 2022 Malta Poker Festival �550 Grand Event which kicks off at 2 p.m. CEST from the marvellous Portomaso Casino.
The crown jewel of the MPF has smashed all expectations, garnering a whopping 1,019 entries. This has meant the �300,000 guarantee has been obliterated, with the final prize pool standing at �486,720!
Of those 1,019 entries, just 273 players are returning. Nemo Israel comes back with biggest, following his supreme navigation skills on Day 1b. Rounding out the top three chip stacks for Day 2 are Luigi D'Alterio and Victor Fryda.
Other notables who will be taking a seat in Day 2 include Unibet Ambassador David Lappin, PokerStars Hippodrome Pro Chris Da Silva and Women's Poker Association advocate Christina Read, who also was victorious in the series' Ladies First! event.
Today's action sees the blinds increase to 50 minutes with the plan to play down to the final three tables. Play resumes at Level 14 with the blinds at 3,000/5,000/5,000a. If that changes, PokerNews will be the first to let you know. Those who pilot a stack over to the final and third day will once again return on Monday, May 2 at 2 p.m..
