2008 Partouche Poker Tour: Cannes Main Event - Day 1b

Things are in full swing here at the inaugural Partouche Poker Tour Main Event in Cannes, France. Yesterday's Day 1a flight saw 226 entrants turn out, though only 99 survived. Today's field is expected to be bigger and packed with star power as a majority of the pros associated with Poker Battle are expected to hit the felt.

Amongst the more popular names rumored to be playing are Scotty Nguyen, Michael 'The Grinder' Mizrachi, Phil Ivey, Evelyn Ng, Jeff Madsen, Theo Tran, David Williams and Nenad Medic.

Play is scheduled to recommence at 3:00 p.m. local time (9:00 a.m. EST) and the PokerNews Live Reporting Team will be on hand to bring you all of the action direct from the tournament floor.

We'll see you then!
