Level 29
: 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
From a starting field of 1,789, just 20 players remain after Day 2 of Event #1: €350 Opener at the 2021 World Series of Poker Europe (WSOPE).
Such was the size of the field, the original plan to play until a final table was reached was scrapped and 14 levels were on the menu instead. By the end of what was a gruelling day, Volodymyr Legkyi has bagged the chip lead. He eliminated Dennis Magro late in the day in a pot of over four million chips to eventually bag 6,775,000.
Behind him comes Narcis Nedelcu (6,145,000) and Robert [Removed:345] (4,480,000) who are the only players over four million in chips.

Players who made the money included 2019 Opener champion Renat Bohdanov (229th - €531), Tobias Peters (225th - €531), Sandro Pitzanti (179th - €664), Jan Bendik (176th - €664), Michal Mrakes (169th - €664), Day 1b chip leader Zdenko Slavik (136th - €701), Claudio Celenza (111th - €749) and Day 1a chip leader Marc Meden (33rd - €2,009).
