Many of the greats in the game will return to their seats on moving day of the $25,500 MILLIONS World. The partypoker Caribbean Poker Party is being hosted at the Baha Mar Resort in the Bahamas this year and all of the best players in the world have made the trek to take part in some spectacular poker tournaments.

There will be 183 players returning after two starting flights but that number is expected to grow with late registration still open for a few hours. There have been a total of 282 entries thus far but with a $10 million guaranteed prizepool, there is still a bit of work to do to reach the goal of 400 entries. The staff still remains confident though as everyone will be given the opportunity of two entries before late registration is closed today.

Some notables to keep an eye on heading into the day will be Day 1a chipleader Chance Kornuth who holds the second largest stack in the field with 3,840,000. He trails a surprising Gerlado Cesar who accumulated 4,315,000 on Day 1b and will be looking for a breakthrough performance here this week. Calvin Anderson will round out the top three stacks with 3,700,000 after battling with Cesar for much of the day yesterday.

There will also be plenty of partypoker pros in the action on Day 2 with Isaac Haxton leading the team. Haxton will start out with 3,660,000 chips and will be joined by Jason Koon (2,695,000), Joao Simao (2,275,000), Barny Boatman (2,075,000), Anatoly Filatov (1,650,000), Kristen Bicknell (1,570,000), Joni Jouhkimainen (1,350,000), Philipp Gruissem (1,130,000), Sam Trickett (1,000,000), and Fedor Holz (688,000).

The action will resume at 12 p.m. local time inside the convention center at the Baha Mar Resort. The blinds will resume on level 9 at 10,000/20,000 with a big blind ante of 20,000. It will be a longer day for the players with 10 levels on the schedule and a 15-minute break after every two levels. There is also a 60-minute dinner break scheduled for after the fourth level of the day. Late registration will remain open for the first four levels today until approximately 4:30 p.m. with everyone given the opportunity for two more entries today.
