After a long day of poker that saw both Day 1a and Day 1b flight's come to their conclusion, the remaining 224 players will join together at noon tomorrow to play down to a winner.
Leading the way of day 1b is no one else than the Spanish pro Mustapha Kanit who turned his 30,000 into 662,000 after 19 levels of 20 minutes. The tournament superstar has already racked up $11,486,708 in live winnings, including the victory of the 2015 EPT Grand Final €50,000 super high roller for €936,500 and a second place in the 2016 EPT Grand Final €100,000 No Limit Hold'em - Super High Roller for €1,462,000.
Kanit is followed by Roberto Silvani, who won the € 1,100 No Limit Hold'em - Super Hyper-Turbo event of the PokerStars Championship in 2017 here in Barcelona for € 20,300, his biggest live score, will try to continue his run tomorrow and improve his previous result.
Others in the top counts were Lars Tungel (513,000), who made the money earlier this week in the € 1,100 No Limit Hold'em Seniors 50+ (Event #10) and Almedin Imsirovic (454,000). The Belgium Bart Lybaert also emerged among the big stacks in the middle of the day and bagged a hefty 450,000
