Gabrieli and Serock Lead the Field
The third and final break of the day shows a total of 150 entries with 61 players remaining, and the registration for Day 1B of the partypoker LIVE MILLIONS Grand Final Barcelona €10,300 Main Event will close when cards are get back in the air with blinds of 20,000/40,000. That's still 25 big blinds for anyone willing to take a late shot ar running up a stack.
Among those that are back in are Justin Bonomo and Mikalai Vaskaboinikau. Mikhail Rudoy, the partypoker representatives Isaac Haxton and Joao Simao took a break after busting out of Day 1A. Simao sent Stefan Huber to the rail and sits on 1.9 million. Same applies for Adrian Mateos, who managed to spin up his stack to 3.0 million already.
That's still far from the current massive stacks of Ivan Gabrieli (8.7 million), Joe Serock (8.2 million) and Sofian Benaissa (6.1 million). Both would easily be top five stacks after Day 1a. Dan Shak is stuck next to Serock and one table over is Preben Stokkan on around 5. million. Other big names to highlight the second flight include Martin Jacobson, Ryan Riess and Thomas Muehloecker.
On Gabrieli's table, an argument broke out in between the double up of Amir Touma. Paul Dando had raised to 75,000 and Touma shoved for his last 435,000.
