In two hours from now at 5 p.m. local time, Day 2 of the 2017 PokerStars Festival Rozvadov €5,300 King's High Roller will get underway. The priciest event of the festival at the King's Casino attracted a field of 33 entries thus far, including 28 unique players and five reentries, and that number is expected to grow still.
The registration at the casino near the border to Germany, also known as "RozVegas" and host of the upcoming World Series of Poker Europe later this year, remains open until the first card is dealt in level 12 at blinds of 1,000-2,000 with a running ante of 300. All new entries will receive 50,000 in chips, good enough for 25 big blinds, and among those expected to join the action again are [Removed:197] and Steven Thompson.
Vladimir Troyanovskiy bagged up the most chips of the 15 survivors with 203,300, followed by 2011 World Series of Poker Main Event runner up Martin Staszko (187,300) and Aviv Meiri (173,200). One of the most vocal and active players was Martin Kabrhel, who had to fire two bullets and experienced a roller coaster day, eventually claiming 148,300 for Day 2. Tomas Soderstrom follows less than an ante behind with 148,200 while other notables include Marcin Chmielewski (137,500), Eugene Katchalov (111,000), Andreas Samuelsson (92,000), Pierre Neuville (50,400) and PokerStars Team Pro Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier (21,500).
The tournament is scheduled to play down to a winner today, and the PokerNews live reporting team will be there to cover all the action. Day 1a of the €1,100 Main Event also gets underway at 4 p.m. local time and you can follow the updates here.
The action is about to get underway and there have been four new entries to bump the field to 37. Jonas Lauck, Steven Thompson, Viliyan Petleshkob and Tomas Jozonis all fired another bullet.

The registration has closed, and the remaining players were balanced on three tables.
Team PokerStars Pro Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier was the shortest stack coming back and he was at risk after just two hands. Aviv Meiri raised to 5,500 and Vladimir Troyanovskiy called from two seats over in the cutoff. ElkY moved all in for 20,900 out of the big blind and both opponents called.
The flop of 
went check, check, and Meiri also checked the 
turn. Troyanovskiy made it 30,000 to go and that forced a fold from Meiri.
Bertrand Grospellier: 
Vladimir Troyanovskiy: 
Only one of the two remaining queens could help Grospellier, but the 
river was a blank to send the first player to the rail.

Viliyan Petleshkov opened the action with a raise to 4,500 from under the gun and Pierre Neuville moved all in for just under starting stack from the button. Eugene Katchalov peeked at his cards in the big blind and moved all in to isolate. Petleshkov shook his head and got out of the way to see yet another coin flip take place.
Pierre Neuville: 
Eugene Katchalov: 
The flop came 
and Katchalov improved to a pair of aces. After a blank 
turn and 
river, the second big name was sent packing early on.

Vlado Banicevic made it 4,400 to go and Andreas Eiler opted to defend his big blind, then checked the flop of 
. Banicevic put on his sunglasses and continued for 6,000, which Eiler called and also put on the sunglasses as well. The staring contest quickly ended on the 
turn though, as Eiler checked and folded to a second barrel worth 14,000 by Banicevic.

A raising war broke out between Eugene Katchalov and Papa Guy. The former already four-bet to 37,000 and Paga Guy then carefully counted his stack for around 142,000 before moving all in. Katchalov called and it was a cooler for both players, having picked up the best two starting hands.
Papa Guy:
Eugene Katchalov: 
The board ran out 
and Katchalov paired his king on the turn to improve and eliminate Papa Guy, also jumping into the top spot. All remaining 16 players will mow be balanced to two tables.
