On Day 1 of the €10,200 Mystery Bounty at the 2024 PokerStars European Poker Tour (EPT) Paris, 71 entries were made, creating a provisional cash prize pool of €333,700 and bounty prize pool of €355,000. Of them, 46 will return to Le Palais des Congrès today to battle it out on Day 2. However, when the cards go in the air at 12:30 p.m. local time, late registration will still be open for two more 30-minute levels, leaving plenty of opportunity for that number to grow.
Sitting down with the most chips at the start of play is Joris Ruijs, who used his Day 1 to the fullest and grinded his way to a stack of 405,500, worth 135 big blinds when play recommences. Fellow crusher Sergi Reixach also knew a tremendous Day 1, resulting in him starting with 375,000 on Day 2. Meanwhile, hometown hero Jeremie Zouari completes the top three with 358,000 in chips.

Meanwhile, some new players have already registered to sit down with a fresh stack on Day 2, including Aliaksei Boika and Jon Ander Vallinas, who both fired one bullet on Day 1 without any success. With only one reentry available to the competitors, they will have to make sure to make the most out of their second one.
All players who hop in during late registration on Day 2 will receive the starting stack of 100,000 chips. With blinds recommencing at Level 9:1,500/3,000 with a 3,000 big blind ante, this leaves plenty of room to play with. When late registration closes at the start of Level 11, the starting stack will be worth 20 big blinds, and it will take two more levels before the mystery bounty element comes into play. After that, the tournament will play as many 30-minute levels as needed to play down to a winner.
At the start of Level 13, all remaining players will receive a bounty token. When a player knocks another competitor out of the tournament, they receive their bounty token. The token can then be traded at the mystery bounty desk for an envelope containing an unknown prize. With €5,000 of each buy-in going to the bounty prize pool, these prizes usually range from high four-figure to high five-figure or even low six-figure amounts.
