Neun deutschsprachige Spieler waren unter den 451 verbliebenen Spielern an Tag 2 beim $1000 No Limit Hold’em. 324 Plätze wurden bezahlt und nur Sebastian Winkler und Adrian Keller verfehlten das Ziel. Die anderen durften sich über Cashes freuen, aber im Finale sind sie nicht mehr dabei.
Die Bubble war schnell geplatzt und die acht Deutschen und der eine Österreicher waren sicher im Geld. Die Shortstacks Christof Birnbacher und Sven Oberlander konnten sich sogar besser behaupten, als es anfänglich schien. Als erster der Deutschen musste Fabian Spangenberg mit Platz 241 gehen. Der nächste war der letzte Österreicher Florian Höller auf Rang 158, gefolgt von Christof Birnbacher (153), Sven Oberlander (138) und Tarek Riester (113), und Martin Mayer (110). Einzig Thomas Wolff schaffte es in die Top 100, auf Rang 51 war aber auch für ihn Feierabend.
Aber auch Pros wie Marco Traniello, Liv Boeree, Neil Channing, Everest Pro Antoine Saout und David Sands hatten bereits an Tag 2 frei.
Mit 38 Spielern geht es in den Finaltag. Ryan D’Angelo hat seine Führung nicht ins Ziel gebracht, aber er kämpft noch ums Bracelet, ebenso wie Svetlana Goremska, Scott Montgomery oder der Ungar Peter Traply.
