Obwohl fast nur Russen beim RUB 175.000 Main Event der PokerStars European Poker Tour (EPT) im Casino Sochi am Start sind, führt doch ein Ukrainer das Feld in Tag 2.
Nach einem soliden Start am Dienstag mit 208 Entries standen gestern Tag 1B und der schnelle Flight 1C auf dem Programm. 313 Entries wurden an Tag 1B verzeichnet, darunter auch Artur „mararthur1“ Martirosyan oder Gleb „Ti0373“ Tremzin oder Rinat „Zapahzamazki“ Lyapin. Den letzten Flight nutzten noch 97 Entries und so sind es insgesamt 618 Entries bislang. Da die Late Reg noch zum Start von Tag 2 offen ist, werden sicher noch ein paar Spieler hinzukommen.
117 bzw. 52 Spieler konnten gestern Chips eintüten, wobei sich Oleksandr Sandulov mit 300.000 Chips den Tagessieg an Tag 1B und die Gesamtführung sicherte. Diese hielt auch Tag 1C Stand und so führt er mindestens 236 Spieler heute in Tag 2.
Fortgesetzt wird heute bei den Blinds 800/1600/1600, die Leveldauer beträgt ab heute bereits 90 Minuten. Updates gibt es im russischen PokerStars Blog. Infos und den kompletten Turnierplan gibt es unter pokerstarslive.com.
