Guarantee Expected to be Surpassed in Day 1d of 2022 Malta Poker Festival Spring €550 Grand Event

Calum Grant

The 2022 Malta Poker Festival Spring €550 Grand Event is in full swing, with the first three starting flights already in the books. Today's action sees Day 1d kick off at 2 p.m. CEST at the Portomaso Casino.

Day 1c was the most attended flight yet, seeing 191 entries. This boosted the overall entry figure to 445, meaning €222,500 of the €300,000 guarantee has been collected. Day 1d is expected to be even bigger than Day 1c, so it is an almost certainty that the guarantee will be hit when the dust settles from today's proceedings.

Greece's Georgios Ninis bagged best in Day 1c, finishing with a healthy 429,000 chip stack. Other notables who made it through to Sunday, May 1's Day 2 include Tanja Vujanic, David Hu and Jacek Pustula.

The likes of Mats Karllson, Jacqueline Cachia and Maureen Bloechlinger were unable to navigate the first hurdle but still have several chances to advance to the next stage.

Day 1d gets underway at 2 p.m. local time and players receive a starting stack of 50,000. Starting flights will close after 13 levels of action, all of which last 40-minutes. Late registration is open until the end of the break that follows Level 8 and each participant is permitted two re-entries per flight.

Another event taking place today at the MPF is the The Hendon Mob Championship Day 1. That event begins at 4 p.m. CEST and comes with a buy-in of €220.

There are two satellites running today, one for the Grand Event which is currently underway. Those looking to play the €1,100 MPF High Roller can book their seat for a fraction of the price in today's satellite, which costs €150 to enter. That gets going at 6 p.m. local time.
