Day 2 Starts at Noon with Foxen Leading and Registration Open
Day 2 of the 2019 World Series of Poker Europe €10,350 Main Event is about to start at 12 p.m. local time, with the 113 survivors from Day 1a and the 166 from Day 1b all combined in the same field. The total number of entries is 446 so far, out of which the 279 are still in the field. With €5,000,000 guaranteed in the prize pool this means that the field didn't reach it yet, but it is expected to be accomplished during Day 2 with registrations open until Level 12 and only 54 more entries required to surpass the guaranteed.
Two familiar names topped the two starting flights in the chipcounts, Alex Foxen (537,200) after Day 1a and Kahle Burns (497,200) after Day 1b, with those two occupying the first two spots of the total counts, too. A lot of other well-known names are still in the field, such as Shaun Deeb (345,300), Anatoly Filatov (270,000), Jeff Madsen (262,600), Joao Vieira (240,000), Julien Martini (220,000), Daniel Negreanu (167,600), and many more.
The schedule for today is to play six levels with a 15-minute break after each level and a 60-minute break after Level 11. The late registration and reentry period will close after the completion of Level 12, at approximately 22:20 on Day 2.
