Max Lykov started the day with just about what he started yesterday with, 29,300. This day's starting off a little better for the Russian Team Pro, though. Lykov has just found a double after getting his chips all in preflop with 
against a player with pocket jacks.
There was an ace and two more kings on board, and kings full bump Lykov up over 60,000 here in the early going.
Tournament Director Thomas Kremser gave some warm introductions to the players, thanking them for making this the largest-ever tournament in the UK.
Kremser ran down the schedule for the day, and it seems we'll be playing on into the money and then calling it a night when we have 128 players remaining. That should make for quite a long Day 3 and 4, but it's TK's world and we're just living in it.
In any event, the cards are flying here on Day 2, and they're off for the race to the money.
Level: 10
Blinds: 600/1,200
Ante: 100
Once again it's going to be a squeeze as we attempt to fit in the 380 remaining players into the tournament area. Despite losing nearly 500 players, the field is still incredibly stacked as both Daniel Negreanu and Phil Ivey remain with above average stacks.
Also stil in the tournament are former EPT champions, Arnaud Mattern, Kevin MacPhee as well as the former winner here a few years ago, Vicky Coren. The man at the top at the moment though is Italian Claudio Cecchi, who holds the chip lead with 237,500 and is the chip leader by a decent margin.
We're expecting play to begin in around 20 minutes or so and it looks as though we'll most likely be playing 6 or 7 levels.
