Ozgur Arda has chipped up and shares a table with Riad Chahaf, while the two seat was vacated for just a few minutes. Aldo Monteleone arrived with a big stack and may very well be a contender for the overnight lead with now plenty of chips at the table.
"Ciao Aldo," Chahaf said when he noticed who had just arrived and Monteleone waved back.
In the meanwhile, Konstantinos Sideris has been eliminated and will have to re-enter on Day 1c or Day 1d.
