Welcome to Day 2 of EPT Barcelona €50,000 Super High Roller
Season 10 of the European Poker Tour continues today with Day 2 of the €50,000 Super High Roller. Yesterday, 39 unique players plus 10 re-entries accounted for 49 total entries, but that number is expected to go up as registration is open until the start of Day 2. Igor Kurganov, who busted in the last hand of the night on Day 1, is likely to re-enter, and online high-stakes pro Jens Kyllonen has been spotted wandering the room.
Hungarian businessman Sandor Demjan will begin the day as chip leader with 1,037,000, and he will be joined by other big stacks such as Fabian Quoss (813,000), Team PokerStars Pro Daniel Negreanu (619,000), and November Niner David Benefield (552,000).
Others who busted on Day 1, subsequently re-entered, and are still in contention are Richard Yong, Tobias Reinkemeier, Jeff Rossiter, Timothy Adams, Paul Newey, Marc-Andre Ladouceur, Martin Finger, and Philipp Gruissem.
The field will return at 12 p.m. local time, which is about 20 minutes from now. At that time registration will be closed and official numbers, including the final number of entries and the prize pool, will be released. Join us then as we bring you all the action and eliminations straight from the floor of the Casino Barcelona.
