At 2pm local time, in about 3 hours, Day 2 of the Main Event of the Master Classics of Poker commences. Players still have the option to sign up as registration is open till start of play. While the exact amount of entries is yet to be determined, we already know the field is bigger than last years. In 2015, Jussi Nevanlinna beat a field of 291 entries to walk away a €300,000-winner, who's going to succeed him with an even bigger cheque?
Instead of 60-minute levels as on Day 1a and 1b, levels will now be 75-minutes long. Eight of them are on the schedule for today.
