Day 1b of the €10,300 Main Event Underway
The field size of Day 1b in level one has climbed up to around 80 entries and there aren't that many tables available to fill with new players as the mega satellite with 50 seats is ongoing and Day 1A takes up a lot of space with 210 players out of 338 entries remaining.
All those that were unfortunate enough to bust in the first flight of the day are almost certain to take another shot, among those are Paul Newey, Stefan Huber, Thomas Muehloecker and Brian Piccioli. The latter shares a starting table with fellow American grinder Anthony Spinella and Uruguay's Fabrizio Gonzalez, who denied partypoker ambassador Joao Simao the trophy in the partypoker Latin American Poker Championship $5,300 High Roller at Punta del Este.
