We are an hour away from the beginning of day2 of the Main Event. Yesterday during the last minutes of the last level, there was a lot of aggressive action, reflecting the big number of short stacks around the tables.
The tournament ended with 151 players who actually made it to day2.
Among them there are still 8 chilli players, coming from the Club Promotion or qualified through the online tournaments.
Balazs Botond from Hungary with 75,000, William Ferrer from France with 62,400, Fromont Sebastien from France with 51,700, Pawel Chmiel from Poland with 35,400, Gosch Guenael from France with 35,200, Meyer Julien and Astic Remy, both from France with less than 20,000 chips.
Our ambassador Liz is still in the run among the players who have their stack more or less equal to the average one with 45,600 chips.
Not to forget also Gerardx who, with a series of unfortunate hands, has seen his stack go down to 25,000 but has the whole day to prove everyone wrong.
Among the pros and known faces, we can see Winamax players (such as Guillaume De La Gorce who is now the chip leader, Clemencon Tristan, Lacay Ludovic), Full Tilt Pro Scott Montgomery, Annette Obrenstad from Betfair, Fabrice Soulier and Tony G. In 39th position with 71,000 we have one of the 9th November players, Antoine Saout...will he play the WSOP final table with another Victory in his pocket?
