Day 1b of the €10,300 Main Event Starts at Noon Local Time
Another day is upon us at the 2019 partypoker LIVE MILLIONS Europe in Rozvadov, Czech Republic, and it is time for Day 1b of the €10,300 Main Event in the King's Resort. The tournament features a €5,000,000 prize pool which is the biggest on the entire schedule.
Yesterday saw 101 players survive out of 165 that gave it a shot. They played eight one-hour levels with a fifteen-minute break after every two levels. Mikhail Vilkov ended at the top of the leaderboard with 4,850,000 but he is closely followed by none other than Dietrich Fast who bagged 4,255,000.
Today will feature the second and final starting day but that doesn't mean that registration will be closed at the end of the day. The late registration period is still open until the end of the second level of Day 2. Players will receive a new starting stack of 1,000,000 and the first level of Day 2 is 15,000/30,000. The plan is to play down to the money on Day 2 so the online qualifiers, who already made it into the money, can join on Day 3.
The field is expected to be bigger than yesterday and plenty of new faces were already seen walking around in Rozvadov. They still need plenty more entrants to reach that beautiful guaranteed prize pool of €5,000,000.
PokerGO will be streaming Day 1b of the tournament from 3:15 p.m. local time.

Blaz 'Scarmak3r' Zerjav in the Mix
Niveau 1
: 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Slovenia's Blaz Zerjav was an unknown player in the poker industry before he turned $5 into a whopping $1.3 million under the nickname 'Scarmak3r'. Zerjav managed to parlay $5 through satellites into an incredible score in the 2018 partypoker MILLIONS Online when he finished in third place.
The 22-year old Slovenian football player is back at the poker tables and he already achieved success in Rozvadov. Zerjav reached the final table of the Mini Main Event and not only won a nice cash prize but also a €10,300 ticket for this exact tournament.
Let's see if the young man can turn another won ticket into a big score.
