Viktor Blom, one of the most legendary online poker players in history for his nosebleed exploits in no-limit and PLO games, has taken a seat. Blom took a shot in the Main Event but couldn't get anything going yesterday. However, he's this year's second-biggest online cash winner, so it's doubtful he's hurting at all after that loss.
Another player who just grabbed a seat is Jens Lakemeier. Playing as "Fresh_oO_D" on PokerStars, Lakemeier is a mixed game legend and showed off his skills in the $2,500 Big Bet event at the WSOP, winning his first bracelet and $112,232.

Martin Kozlov has joined the tournament. The Aussie has been on quite a tear in the tournament world since last year with two monster cashes. At the 2016 WSOP, he came first in the $10K Six-Max for $665,000. Earlier this month, he won the $5,250 SHRPO Championship in Florida for another $754,000.
Kozlov has showed off his PLO chops too, getting ninth in the $25K PLO High Roller at this year's WSOP. Kozlov previously told PokerNews that he's mostly a PLO cash player, so we'll see how his game translates to the tournament arena here in Barcelona.
