The second of two opening flights in the €2,200 Estrellas Poker Tour (ESPT) High Roller gets underway at 7 p.m. here at the 2024 PokerStars European Poker Tour Barcelona.
Day 1a of the event has already drawn well over 1,300 runners, with registration set to close at approximately 8 p.m. following that flight’s dinner break. This sets up Day 1b to potentially lead this year’s edition to far surpass last year’s 2,214 entry field which was topped by Goran Mandic.

Level 1
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
After Cristinel Dumitru raised to 500 from the hijack, Metin Yalciner three-bet to 1,800. Dumitru called to see a flop.
It came K♣8♦3♣ and Dumitru check-called a bet of 1,200 to see the Q♦ turn.
After checking again, Dumitru faced a bet of 4,500. He thought briefly and then folded to send the pot to Yalciner.
A relatively quiet hand to start their day, but with William Kassouf at their table, entertainment and interesting hands will likely be on the docket at Table 21.

A preflop exchange of raises built a pot of about 10,000 for Christophe Pollet in the hijack and Remy Murcia in the cutoff.
On the Q♥6♦2♠ flop, Pollet check-called a 2,000 chip bet from Murcia to see the 6♠ turn.
The action checked through to the 9♠ river and Pollet checked a final time.
Murcia elected to check back and Pollet revealed his A♦K♦. Murcia showed 10♦10♣ for the winner to take the pot.
