Welcome back to the 2024 Mediterranean Poker Party held at Merit Royal Diamond Hotel and Casino in Northern Cyprus, as Day 2 of the $1,100 Luxon Pay Mystery Bounty kicks off at 12:00 p.m. local time.
With five starting flights over a two-day span, the remaining players who managed to find a bag will combine for the first time. The plan is for play to continue until a champion has been crowned. The exciting bounty portion of the event will come into effect at the beginning of the day as all players have already secured a minimum cash. The prizes will be announced later on today.
Blind levels will increase to 40 minutes, with a 15-minute break after every three levels. There will be a 60-minute dinner break after the completion of Level 30, at approximately 8:45 p.m. local time.
Stay tuned to PokerNews for live updates until a champion has been crowned.
