PMU.fr WPT National Paris Day 1b Starts Shortly

Players Ready For Action
Players Ready For Action

Welcome to Day 1b of the PMU.fr WPT National Paris at the Cercle Clichy Montmartre. With Day 1a just completed we are straight on to the second starting flight. Tomorrow will see Day 1c at 10 a.m. and Day 1d at 8 p.m.

This WPT National Main Event is a €1,200 buy-in with 30k starting stack and 45 minute levels until Day 3. Late registration closes after 9 Levels with re-entries only allowed from one day to another (Day 1A to Day 1B, Day 1B to Day 1C, Day 1C to Day 1D).

WPT National Main Event players are allowed up to four entries into the tournament and players that have played both Day 1A and Day 1B (or any kind of combinations on two days) have the option to choose either their Day 1A or Day 1B stack to bring to Day 2.

There are plenty of chances to fire another bullet in this event to swell the prize pool and give one lucky player a big pay out and the title of WPT National Champion in what is likely to be a battle between regulars at this popular local club and some of the circuit professionals.

Guillaume Wilhelm is the man to catch so far as he has just headed into the night for some well-earned rest after bagging up 177,700. Can the night owls catch him and how will the number of entrants stack up? Will there be any re-entries tonight?

PokerNews will bring you all the action over the next five days of poker in what is sure to be a lively and exciting tournament. Stay tuned to find out who comes top of the heap as we follow the story and another chapter is written in WPT history.

Cards In the Air

Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

Just after play began there were 78 entrants on the board, very close to the 80 for Day 1a. No sign of any re-entries yet, most likely they will wait for tomorrow.

The plan for today, as for each day 1, will be to play 10 levels of 45 minutes each. After the first three levels there will be a 45 minute break, then three more levels and a 15 minute break. A further two levels will be followed by a final 15 minute break before the last two level. Play will conclude around 5 a.m.

Big House Paid For

Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

A fantastic start for one of the women in the field as she faced a bet of 3,000 on the turn of a board reading {j-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{k-Spades} and raised to 6,000. Her opponent made the call and when a {4-Clubs} came on the river he check-called a bet of 10,000 leaving just 3,000 behind.

He showed {j-Hearts}{10-Spades} but was crushed by her {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} full house.

Cercle Clichy Montmartre Comes To Life

Level 2 : 75/150, 0 ante

There was a great day of poker action on Day 1a starting at 10 a.m today but in the evening the venue really has come to life. An illuminated stained glass ceiling with cherubs looks down over the long hall of the main area. Poker action from satellites to cash games including HILO run along some baccarat tables and an antique roulette wheel.

This area leads to the modern circular dedicated poker tournament room decorated with WPT banners and lit by a calm green light where the 105 players are now set to play through the night trying to progress through to day 2.

Cercle Clichy is a truly wonderful place for a poker tournament and six players enjoyed it so much that despite busting Day 1a they have re-bought and are ready to go again right now.
