Damir Zhugralin with 324,000 is a previous winner at Merit Poker Events, he'll be looking to get another victory here to add to his poker resume. Stylish Italian player, Luca Stevanato boasts a big stack for Day 2, coming in with 780,000 after steadily increasing his stack throughout proceedings in Day 1c.
Structure wise, it will continue as it has, there will be 15-minute breaks scheduled at the end of every three 40-minute levels with a 60 minute dinner break after 9 levels of play. The breaks will be subject to change, where players may see some breaks run 20-minutes during colour-ups etc.
