Das € 1.100 Main Event der France Poker Series (FPS) im Rahmen der PokerStars European Poker Tour (EPT) im Hyatt Regency Paris Etoile wurde gestern gestürmt und sorgte aufgrund mangelnden Platzes auch für einigen Unmut bei den Spielern.
Paris als Austragungsort kommt bei den Spielern offenbar besser an als erwartet und die Tickets sind richtig knapp. Es erinnert ein wenig an die Anfänge der EPT in Barcelona, als auch viel zu viele Spieler für zu wenige Plätze anstanden. Und so war es gestern im Hyatt Regeny. Tag 1A wurde mit 30.000 Chips und 40 Minuten Levels gespielt, Tag 1B am Abend dann mit 30 Minuten Levels. 14 Levels standen auf dem Programm, damit sollten rund 15 % der Entries verblieben.
796 Entries waren es an Tag 1A, 251 an Tag 1B, wobei 179 bzw. 65 Spieler am Ende auch Chips eintüten konnten. Klemens Roiter, David Vedral, Adi Rajkovic, Sebastian Schulze, Konstantin Farber, Manig loeser, Jonas Lauck, Jamila von Perger, Andreas Klatt, Manuel Fritz, Jakob Miegel, Leon Sturm, Stefan Schillhabel oder auch Tobias Schwecht waren unter anderem unter den Startern. Einige von ihnen kamen auch hiel durch die Flights, wobei aber keiner ganz vorne mitmischt. Als bester Deutscher liegt Tim Volf auf Rang 49, Tobias Schwecht folgt auf Rang 61.
