Day 2 Cometh
Day 2 of the World Poker Tour Season XI Grand Prix de Paris is set to start here at the Aviation Club de France in the next thirty minutes, and for the first time all 143 players will be under the same roof.
Jacques Enjoubault is our overall chip leader with 225,200 chips, and is followed by Antony Lellouche (178,275), Basil Yaiche (142,475), Pasi Heinanen (100,500), and Juha Helppi (96,200). No player crossed the six-figure mark during Day 1b, while four players finished Day 1a with over 100,000 chips.

Rettenmaier is looking for his third win this year, and Waxman is looking to win back-to-back Grand Prix de Paris'.
