Two partypoker representatives are still in the running. Dzmitry Urbanovich and Jaime Staples both bagged chips at the end of Day 2 and are situated in the middle of the leaderboard with Urbanovich holding an above-average stack while Staples is floating just below. He will be streaming his run, so make sure to have a look there too!
But befitting to the stature of the event, the remaining field is chockful of familiar names from the poker world. Day 1a and Day 1b chip leaders Daniel Dvoress and Peter Jetten are also still in with a shot at grabbing a bigger prize. Dominykas Mikolaitis, Vitalijs Zavorotnijs, Jonathan Proudfoot, and Christian Rudolph are just some more of the notables names left.
Timothy Ulmer, Richard Mullen, Martin Brinkmann, Jiri Kocab, George McDonald, and Urbanovich all made it into the Main Event by winning a seat in one of the $530 satellites and are looking at an amazing return on investment already and will be aiming to only increase it even more. The next pay-jump will be reached once there are 23 players left.
