Nur noch 51 der 1.089 Spieler sind beim £770 Main Event der PokerStars UK & Ireland Poker Tour (UKIPT) im Rahmen der EPT London übrig geblieben, als Tag 2 gestern Freitag, den 10. Oktober, zu Ende ging. Die Führung sicherte sich Vladimir Troyanovski.
323 Spieler waren in Tag 2 gestartet und hatten als erstes Ziel die 159 bezahlten Plätze. Einige deutschsprachige Spieler waren mit dabei, die beste Ausgangsposition von ihnen hatte der Schweizer Fabrizio Fuchs. Sehr früh war der Tag von Team PokerStars Pro Bertrand „ElkY“ Grospellier beendet, der schon nach wenigen Minuten mit 
gegen die Kings von Wilhelm Sascha das Nachsehen hatte. Auch Paul Höfer, Maximilian Mönch, Jonas Lauck, Tobias Hausen sowie Antoine Saout und Max Silver waren unter denen, die leer ausgingen.
Pablo Gordillo scheiterte unmittelbar vor den Geldrängen, ebenso Sylvain Loosli. Der Bubble Boy war ein Bubble Girl. Deborah Worley-Roberts callte am Board 
mit 
all-in und bekam von Matthias Fernandez 
für das Full House gezeigt. Während sie leer ausging, hatten die anderen nun £ 1.250 sicher.
Weitere vier Levels wurden gespielt und in dieser Zeit mussten weitere 100 Spieler die Segel streichen. Darunter waren auch Adem Marjanovic (95./£1.640) sowie Marcel Kessler (63./£1.960) und Niels Vollrath (58./£1.960). Mit 51 verbliebenen Spielern ging Tag 2 zu Ende, wobei sich Vladimir Troyanovskiy im Endspurt die Führung sicherte. Er callte mit 
am Turn 
gegen 
und holte den Pot von Evangelos Terzoudis, dann knackte er mit seinen Jacks die Kings von Marcel Kessler. Am Ende stapelte der PCA High Roller Runner-up 1.399.000 Chips vor sich und liegt damit klar in Führung.
Zwei Schweizer und zwei Deutsche – Fabrizio Fuchs, Cristoph Maximowitz, Andreas Wuerger und Marius Pospiech – haben es in Tag 3 geschafft. Sie haben £ 2.340 sicher, Ziel ist heute der Final Table. Die Coverage findet Ihr unter pokerstarsblog.com.
