Prior to the start of play, players were shown a video welcoming them to the EPT12 Malta festival. The tournament staff then announced the button would begin in Seat 4 before giving the traditional, "Shuffle up and deal."
Cards are in the air here in the Portomaso Casino. We're headed down to the tournament floor to see who's jumped into action straight away.
