Everyone Chasing Csome on Day 2
Welcome back for Day 2 of the Latin American Poker Tour Main Event in Sao Paulo, Brazil brought to you by PokerStars.net. Yesterday, the previous record of 394 entrants for the largest-ever LAPT Main Event was shattered by the 536 runners who came out to play this time around. That just goes to show how much poker is growing around Latin America, with most of the credit belonging to everything that PokerStars.net has provided and brought to the table in this region.
After 10 levels of play were completed yesterday, less than a third of the field remained. Out of those 167 players who will be returning at noon today for Day 2, Leandro Csome leads them all with 271,100 in chips. Only two other players eclipsed the 200,000-chip mark. Those two are Emerson Baroni with 206,000 and Amos Ben Haim with 203,400.
Returning for Day 2 are 42 PokerStars qualifiers, six Team PokerStars members and two PokerStars players. Those rocking Team Pro or Team Online patches are Jose "Nacho" Barbero, Humberto Brenes, Maria "Maridu" Mayrinck, Christian de Leon, Jorge Limon and Angel Guillen. Barbero already holds two LAPT titles and is still very well alive in this quest for a third with 75,700 in chips.
Play resumes in a bit at 12:00 PM local time. The plan is to dwindle the field of 167 down to just 24. That could take a while, but we'll give it our best shot. No matter how long the day is, you can bet that PokerNews will be on hand for all of it to provide you all of the live action straight from the floor. Stay tuned!
