Day 2 Begins with Voth in the Lead
![[user101598]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
Just like Day 2 of the EPT Berlin Main Event, Day 2 of the €10,000 High Roller begins with Ronny Voth commanding the chip lead. Voth bagged over 600,000 chips after eliminating a few notable players, including Sorel Mizzi. On Day 2 of the Main Event, Voth continued to grow his stack before eventually plummeting on Day 3 and busting on Day 4. He will have much tougher competition on this Day 2 however, because he'll be battling it out against some of the toughest players in the world.
Joining Voth atop the counts is American AP Phahurat. Phahurat recently finished runner-up in the World Series of Poker Circuit Caesars Main Event, earning $137,603, and is looking to record his first cash in a high roller and his first cash on European soil. Phahurat has 498,600 chips, and the only other players with over 400,000 chips are the aforementioned Voth and Max Lykov.
Paul Volpe is also in the top-10 chip counts, bagging 185,000. Volpe finished fourth in the EPT London High Roller, pocketing £107,410.
Day 2 will begin with 45 players, but registration is still open until the start of the event. The plan is to play until we reach a final table of eight players, or until we reach a certain time - presumably around 1 a.m. local time.

Peters Eliminates Heitmann
Level 12
: 1,200/2,400, 300 ante
We arrived at the table to catch the end of the action, but AP Phahurat and Todd Terry were kind enough to recap the action.
Phahurat opened with a raise and Terry cut out a three-bet. David Peters four-bet from the other end of the table only to have Jan Heitmann five-bet all in. Phahurat and Terry folded and Peters made the call.
Peters: 
Heitmann: 
The board ran out 
and Peters' kings were able to hold, sending Heitmann home early in the day. Peters now has about 248,000.
"I folded ace-king," lamented Terry after the hand.
