With just over one level in the day, there is no clear chip leader and any from a dozen or so players could win a few important pots and jump clear of the field.

We caught up with Winamax Team Pro Sylvain Loosli in the last level of the night to ask him how he felt about the Winamax SISMIX Main Event.
"It's a fun tournament," said Loosli, "It's always fun to play a Winamax tournament, especially here, because most people know us and they play differently. Some people are kind of scared, some like to win hands against us. It's alwaysfun.
"It's an amazing structure and it's good fun."
Loosli has a commemorative button and a bottle at the TheatrO night club to give away should someone bust him, but he says that people don't tend to play so differently against him while at the tables.
"Usually not so much, but I would say they tend to call too much against us thinking we're bluffing a lot It's good fun. I finished second in this tournament three years ago so it would be nice to improve on that."
Loosli wouldn't be the first Winamax Team Pro to have success here in Marrakech, after Bruno Lopes took down the tournament two years ago. We asked him what winning the tournament would mean to him.
"It would be a nice accomplishment," he said, "It's not one of the biggest tournaments on the tour, but there are still a lot of good players. Naturally, it's not my main goal of the year but it would be really nice to win. Winning a tournament is alway amazing. I mean, you can only win a certain amount of tournaments a year."
The Winamax stable of Team Pros has been growing steadily with the acquisitions of Leo Margets, Joao Vieira and Mustapha Kanit, but Loosli says that there is still a real community atmosphere among the Team.
"We had a seminar before EPT Monte Carlo with the new guys; it was really cool to get together for a few days. We did a few activities, talked poker and mental game. That kind of stuff and got to know each other a little bit more. There's a really strong team spirit, which is good. It's very important in poker, it's nothing new for me to say, but it's important to have a group of people you can work with and share things with. That's really nice."
There will be three more hands before players bag up ahead of Day 2.
