TD Thomas Kremser is on the mic, which means that this tournament is on the verge of kicking off, but judging by yesterday's announcements, which covered everything from the dinner break to the fire exit and were seemingly repeated in 400 languages, we could still be a good few minutes away from starting. Please stand by.
Over on PokerStars, Club PokerNews are pleased to announce we have several exclusive $15,000 Sunday Million & $2,000 PCA Freerolls that you cannot find anywhere else.
Why hello there ladies and gentlemen and welcome to the luxurious Casino de Barcelona where we will be bringing you live coverage of the 2010 EPT Barcelona, brought to you by PokerStars.com
Yesterday 263 players took to the felt but only 137 survived to make it through to Day 2. We only need 215 players to enter today to equal last year's attendance and if we do not reach that, then I will literally eat my hat.
A whole host of stars are booked to play today, including England's Team PokerStars Pro, the delightful Liv Boeree and the man who spent $17,500 on fees for a private jet just so he could play here today, Daniel Negreanu.
Join us from noon local time for the lowdown on who is hot and who is not.
