There are already several familiar faces who have been spotted in their seats. Aleksandr Denisov, who has over $2 million in live tournament cashes, Viktor Shegay who was the EPT Sochi Main Event runner-up last year, Sergey Petrushevskiy, Ivan Volodko, Maksim Bukreev, Anastasiya Denisova and Anatoliy Shershnev are all in the running.
There are six tables in play at the moment. With late registration now closed for Day 1a, many players may choose to jump back in here.
Players are ready to go as Day 1B of the National gets underway.
Level: 1
Blinds: 100/100
Ante: 0
The second of three starting flights for the EPT Sochi National will get underway shortly. Due to kick-off at 7pm, this flight differs from the other two in that it has 30-minute levels on the clock. It also offers players additional opportunities to get involved in the action as late registration for Day 1a ends after Level-8.
All flights have a starting stack of 30,000 chips and each Day 1 will play until 15% of the field remains. This means that every player who makes it through to Day 2 will return already in the money. The levels are 60 minutes from Day 2 onwards. There are unlimited re-entries available across all of the starting flights.
Stay tuned to PokerNews for full coverage of the event, which starts at 7pm local time.
