Day 1b of the 2018 WPTDeepStacks Marrakech Main Event Starts at 1 p.m.
At 1 p.m. local time, cards will be back in the air for the second and — presumably — bigger starting day of the 2018 WPTDeepStacks Marrakech Main Event. Yesterday saw 53 out of 161 players make their way through, including Kalidou Sow and Tobias Peters. The current chipleader is Yves Rolland, who bagged the overnight lead with 212,500.
Like the first day, Day 1b will feature twelve levels of 40 minutes each, with a 15-minute break after every three levels. A 75-minute dinner break will be held after level 9 and players can enter and reenter up until the start of level 10. Players will get 30,000 in chips to work with to try and capture WPTDeepStacks gold.
PokerNews will cover the event in the stunning Es Saadi Resort start to finish so don't go anywhere as we get closer to crowning a new champion!
