Day 2 Concludes

Dragan the rest of the field in his wake
Dragan the rest of the field in his wake
The 469 who made it to Day 2 have now been whittled down to a mere 120 or so; these lucky few will be joining us back in the Casino San Remo tomorrow at 2pm local time when they'll be playing six more levels or down to 24 players, whichever comes first.

Those who fell by the wayside today include reigning champion Jason Mercier who barely lasted a few minutes of the first level. Katja Thater, Isabelle Mercier, Liam Flood, David Saab and Marcel Luske also failed to make the grade, and won't be going any deeper in this tournament.

On the other hand, it's been an incredibly good day for serial shirt-changing Croatian chip monster Dragan Galic. He started the day as chip leader and he's ending it that way too -- after an extraordinary run and four or five different shirts he's now on around 560,000, barring last minute accidents or surges during the last few hands when the press were ejected from the tournament area. Also doing very well indeed are emotional Italian Giuseppe Argento, and entertaining young Dutchman Constant Rijkenberg.

Join us back here for all the action tomorrow, internet connection permitting, of course.
