1.098 Entries sind es beim € 5.300 Main Event der PokerStars European Poker Tour presented by Monte-Carlo Casino geworden und so konnte man einen neuen Rekord feiern. Nur noch 126 Spieler gehen in Tag 3.
Die Late Reg war zum Start von Tag 2 noch offen und 35 Spieler nutzten auch noch die Gelegenheit. 775 Starter und weitere 323 Re-Entries sorgten für eine neue Rekordmarke und einen Preispool von € 5.325.300. Das Feld präsentierte sich sehr international, wobei die Franzosen den größten Anteil der Spieler stellten. Deutschland war im Verhältnis schwächer als gewohnt, dafür waren die Schweizer stärker.
Mit Tag 2 gab es dann auch die Payouts, die Top 159 Plätze waren bezahlt. € 8.700 war der Min-Cash und im Laufe des Tages sollte man auch die Geldränge erreichen. Conor Beresford, Eoghan O’Dea, Christopher Pütz oder auch Luke Schwartz waren unter denjenigen, die leer ausgehen sollten. Stephen Chidwick erwischte es auf der Soft Bubble, Yasuhiro Waki war Bubble Boy, als er short mit den Assen an 
von Ryhor Karapanau scheiterte, weil das Board 
brachte.
Die anderen hatten nun den Min-Cash sicher, den sich unter anderem Diego Zeiter abholte. Adi Rajkovic schaffte schon den Payjump und nahm € 9.850 mit – gleich viel wie Team PokerStars Pro Benjamin „Spraggy“ Spragg. Spraggy traf mit 
auf 
von Kilian Kramer, die 
auf dem River langte Kilian.
Bis zum Ende des Tages waren 126 Spieler übrig, wobei Samuel Ju der Shortstack ist. Chipleader ist der Este Markkos Ladev (881.000) vor Pieter Aerts (876.000) und Artur Martirosian (857.000), auch Mike Watson und Ramon Colillass sowie Juan Pardo sind in den Top 10.
