Hello and welcome, or should that be Tere tulemast, to Day 1b of the EPT Tallinn Main Event brought to you by PokerStars. Yesterday saw 92 players exchange €4,250 for 30,000 tournament chips, an amazing blind structure and the chance to become a European Poker Tour champion.

Today we are expecting a bumper crowd to descend on the luxurious Swissotel here in the very heart of Tallinn with numbers as high as 200 being touted. Amongst those listed to play today are Team PokerStars Pros Sebastian Ruthenberg and JP Kelly, both of whom had deep runs in the recent World Series of Poker Main Event (Ruthenberg finishing in 55th place and Kelly in 26th).

Also due to play today are Kelly and Ruthenberg's fellow Team PokerStars Pros Ville Vahlbeck and Dario Minieri. They will be joined by the likes of British pro John Eames and Annette Obrestad.

Join us right here on PokerNews from 1200 noon local time for all the action, as it happens, from the EPT Tallinn Main Event.
