Turn off the Lights and Lock the Doors; Day 1b is Over
At the end of another eight levels, Ilkka Koskinen appears to have just pipped his way into the chip lead with 140,900. He's not in the clear by any means, though, as Team PokerStars Pro Sebastian Ruthenberg bagged up a barely-inferior 140,800. There are a number of dangerous foes hot on their heels as well, including the 128,300-chip stack of Peter Eastgate. Be that as it may, they're all still chasing Day 1a top dog Andrew Pantling.
The 138-ish players who survived this second flight will join our 113 Day 1a survivors as the entire field will convene under the same roof for the first time tomorrow. Day 2 figures to be another awesome day of cards as the field is still stacked with notable faces.
We'll be back at 2:00pm CET tomorrow, and we hope you'll join us once again. Until then, goodnight from Copenhagen!
