All four starting days of the 2020 888poker LIVE Madrid €888 Main Event have wrapped up and there have been a total of 980 entries thus far with at least 534 players returning to their seats at the Casino Gran Via Madrid at 5 p.m. local time. Three players bagged up twice and will carry over their biggest stack into Day 2.
The blinds will recommence at 1,200-2,400 with a big blind ante of 2,400, the registration and re-entry period will remain open for the first two 50-minute levels and following break. From there on out, the tournament is essentially a freezeout and the livestream will commence on the 888poker social media channels.
Leading the field into Day 2 is 1c chip leader Lin Ruida with 588,000, followed by Kfir Ivgi (535,000) and Jose Carlos Garcia (505,200) who topped their respective starting day. Plenty of other players have hundreds of big blinds at their disposal including such big names as Claudio Di Giacomo (453,000), Valentin Cristea (368,800), Marius Gicovanu (363,100), Francisco Pulido (348,600), Alessandro Borsa (290,000), and Abdelhakim Zoufri (283,900), Jordi Corominas (269,000), Ebony Kenney (267,700), Federico Anselmi (267,200), and Carl Shaw (251,800) are all way above the average.
