Day 2 Has Concluded

Davidi Kitai
Davidi Kitai
After nine levels of play, the Day 2 field which began with 203 hopefuls, has been reduced to just 36. We said goodbye to many notables including the likes of Rafe Furst, Sorel Mizzi, the brothers Mizrachi, Surinder Sunar, Isaac Haxton, George Danzer, Scott Montgomery, Casey Kastle, and Glen Chorny just to name a few.

Davidi Kitai ends the day as the probable chip leader with roughly 540,000. Probable is the operative word however, as the chip lead changed multiple times in the last level of play, with a clear leader being too close to call. Team Pokerstars pro Chad Brown is toward the top of the leaderboard with 235,000, as are Jason Mercier and Dren Ukella, both with over 340,000.

The action continues tomorrow when the remaining 36 players duke it out for the eight spots on Sunday's final table. Action begins as 3:00pm local time and with such a small field, we do expect an on-time start. We hope you'll join us for all the Day 3 action as the money gets bigger and the action is sure to follow.

As always, official chip counts will be posted when they become available. Goodnight from Barcelona!
