Yarovoy Playing Power Poker

Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

Even in Level 1, with tables yet to fill up, some players are happier passing and others intent on winning every pot. Artur Yarovoy fits into the second group.

Pre-flop, Yarovoy three-bet to 1,100 over an initial raiser made it 450. He got two calls, then on the flop of {10-Spades}{K-Clubs}{4-Hearts} , he made it 1,500 after being checked to by the initial raiser.

That was enough to take down the pot for Yarovoy, and with 150 entries already, we are up to 426 total entries, edging us closer to that €500,000 guarantee for this 888LiveBarcelona Man Event.

Cate Hall will be back in action with a final shot to make Day 2

With two Day 1 flights already in the can, we are back in action from 3.00pm local time at the Casino Barcelona for the final Day 1 flight as players take on the €1,000+100 entry Main Event.

We've had 276 entries to date, with 101 players already bagging chips to take through to tomorrow's Day 2. Who can join them today from what is sure to be a star-stacked field? Yesterday saw players such as William Kassouf and Cate Hall register but bust early to leave themselves ready to battle on Day 1c.

Other pros from the 888Poker stable looking to race through to Day 2 will include Bruno Politano and Kara Scott, who arrived yesterday and were part of the Welcome Party where 888Poker pledged to 'Take Back the Game' for the players with a host of new benefits, schemes and bonuses designed to reward players of all levels. Given the huge €500,000 prize-pool on offer here in Barcelona, those players are looking to catch their first reward in the Catalan capital by winning a major trophy and banking a serious sum of money.

The Pokernews team will be around the tables all day to bring you the action from Day 1c of the 888Live Barcelona Main Event from big pots to bust-outs and everything in between. As they say in Spain, Vamos!
