Level 8
: 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
The 2018 PokerStars European Poker Tour Barcelona €100,000 Super High Roller field raced its way through eight 60-minute levels, and at the end of it, just 28 players out of 44 entries will advance to Day 2.
It looked like more would advance, but the late eliminations of Ali Reza Fatehi, Nick Petrangelo - one of two players to bust twice today - and Spaniard Adrian Mateos meant that just 28 will be coming back tomorrow.
Dario Sammartino, Wai Leong Chan and Luc Greenwood were the only other three players to bust on Day 2 and not re-enter, as the likes of Nick Petrangelo, Timothy Adams, Linus Loeliger, David Peters, Christoph Vogelsang and Seth Davies all jumped straight back in.
The number at the start of Day 2 will undoubtedly grow, as certain players take advantage of late registration being open until the start of Day 2, but several players have already assured themselves good stacks at the end of Day 1.
The chip leader heading into Day 2 is Ahadpur Khangah who, although coughing and spluttering off the tables, was the exact opposite when it came to the poker, bagging well in excess of one million chips with 1,155,000.
He was boosted by the elimination of Dario Sammartino who flopped two pair in a hand against Khangah. Unfortunately for him, Khangah rivered a better two pair and shoved into the Italian, who called and was eliminated.
Other big stacks include Pascal LeFrancois (647,000), David Peters (638,000), Seth Davies (622,000), Timothy Adams (587,000), Jan-Eric Schwippert (545,000) and Patrik Antonius (517,000). These are the only players who bagged at least two starting stacks.
Khangah will start Day 2 at 12:30 local time at Casino Barcelona with the chip lead, but with several other big names expected to join the field he might be hard-pushed to hold onto that!

A min-raised pot to the 
flop was checked by Setz Davies in the under-the-gun position, Ali Reza Fatehi on the button and Linus Loeliger in the small blind. The 
fell on the turn and action checked to Davies, who bet 27,000. Fatehi called and Loeliger raised it up to 108,000.
That's when things got even more tricky, as Fatehi announced an all in out of turn and the floorman was called. The options remained the same for Davies, and if he called, the all in of Fatehi was binding. That's exactly that happened, and Fatehi was all in for 227,000. Loeliger folded and Davies snap-called.
Ali Reza Fatehi: 
Seth Davies: 
The 
on the river was insignificant, as Davies had the nut straight, and Fatehi was ousted just before bagging and tagging.

. Thorel checked, Petrangelo bet 35,000 and folded to a quick check-raise to 75,000 by Thorel.
Petrangelo raised to 10,000 the next hand and Daniel Dvoress came along out of the big blind. On the 
flop, Dvoress checked and called 6,000. The turn was checked and Dvoress' shove on the river claimed the pot without showdown.
