CPPT World Cup of Cards
Day 1b Completed
Sofiane Boulila ended Day 1b of the CPPT $1,650 No-Limit Hold em as the chip leader. He almost reached 500,000 and overtook Day 1a chip leader Jean Sebastien Dubois, who had 439,000.
The two players are the only players in the field that will start Day 2 with 400,000 and the next closest has 301,000. Boulila got the most all day out of suited connectors and one gappers in position. He scooped up a lot of his chips with small flushes and took some chances, getting all in on draws to win some bigger pots.
The players will return tomorrow and the final 36 will make the money. A min-cash is worth $3,200 and the first prize is $110,000. Play resumes at noon tomorrow. The blinds will start at level 15 (1,500/3,000 500 ante) and the levels will change from 45 to 60 minutes.
