Many thanks for all the positive feedback we are getting with Chiliblog and the WPT Live Reporting websites. Both the casino and the WPT venue are impressive. Outside the casino you can see that the clientèle here are well off, really well off or unbelievably rich! I mean you can just tell from the cars parked outside. The latest models of Audi, Mercedes, BMW’s, Hummer, Bentley, Austin Martin and Ferraris are parked outside. The minimum stake is above average from my experience and you know how much I love going to the casinos!
OK so back to the events in mention. The first events are basically being considered a side event to the main event:
Saturday 10th October
Day 1 of the Morocco Championship NLH Freezeout €900
Sunday 11th October
Day 2 of the Morocco Championship NLH Freezeout €900
Sunday 11th October
Day 1 of the Morocco Championship NLH Freezeout €500
Monday 12th October
Day 2 of the Morocco Championship NLH Freezeout €500
I am still waiting for the results of the above mentioned events, but I hope to have them to you shortly.
Please note that both the Chiliblog (FR) and Live Reporting (FR) are also available in French. If one had to compare the English Blogs to the French Blogs the English would be an outsiders look at the events of the week because it’s mainly being run by the Chilipoker Staff and the French would be an insiders look at the event because the bloggers are mainly players. Some of you are smart enough to be able to read both. Fantastic! On the other hand I only speak English 
But I have improved my French skills quite a bit since I have been here.
The poker venue is just perfect, 40 tables and a capacity of 400 people. Not including the featured table and the poker tables at the casino. OK, so here is what happened last night….
First a 5 Star buffet dinner at the Essaadi Palace, whereby the choice of food was absolutely fantastic. From starter, to main course and desert the selection was endless. At the dinner table were several of the players that were sponsored by Chilipoker to play the Morocco Championship NLH Freezeout €500, next to me several of the Madeinpoker team as well, who also would be playing the event. Right across the room I could see several familiar poker faces having dinner, you know the people on repetition when your watching the poker channel. I was introduced to Tony G, Fabrice Soulier and Roger Hairabedian. After a very good dinner and some wine we headed to the poker room for the side event.
I meet up with the players that would be playing the event and wished them the best of luck, here is a breakdown of the players we were watching extra closely, why we are watching and whats happened thus far:
Morocco Championship NLH Freezeout €500
Cyril Fievet from MadeinPoker.com
Jami Juutila qualified on Chilipoker.com (iPoker)
Christophe Costes qualified on MadeinPoker.com
Jean Christophe Rigal qualified on Chilipoker.com (iPoker)
Christer Jannson qualified on Chilipoker.com (iPoker)
Simon Rouviere French Poker Club winner and 3 of his friends played as well
Julien Meyer qualified on Chilipoker.com (iPoker)
The gossip thus far before the start of day 2 is as follows, Simon Rouviere has busted but one of his three friends is still in the event, Christophe Costes busted Liz Lieu with a set of kings to pocket aces only to also bust in 46th place, Julien Meyer had two unfortunate hands and is also out of the event, Cyril busted earlier then expected short staked KJ vs AK, Jami Juutila is also out.
So lets give a shout out to the only chili left in the event. GO! Jean-Chrisophe Rigal….
Take it down Jean!
