Keeping on pace with yesterday, the action was all gas and no breaks throughout the day as the turbo-esque structure encouraged action early on, with multiple all-ins seen as early as Level 2. As was expected, today’s flights were larger than yesterday’s but still finished within the same time frame.
Some notable names that played in todays’ flights and managed to find a bag were Jeff Platt (446,000), Adam Saven (378,000) and Michael Loncar (376,000).
Poker power couple Bob Mather and Lexy Gavin-Mather also fired their collective shots today, but unfortunately were not able to find a Day 2 bag just yet. World-renowned poker commentator and comedian Joe Stapleton is also in the same camp as he fired in Day 1c but will be back on the hunt tomorrow along with Daniel 'Donk' Hughes.
Tomorrow will feature the final flight of this event, Day 1e, and it is expected to be the largest yet so if you haven’t found a Day 2 bag, this is your last chance!
Stay tuned as PokerNews will be bringing you all of the updates here at Thunder Valley!
