Jours 2
PSC Bahamas 25750$ : Petrangelo reste devant, Kaverman et Kenney sont encore en finale, Negreanu en chasse
Niveau 20
: 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Chipleader en début de Jour 2, Nick Petrangelo a gardé la tête du High Roller 25 750$ du PokerStars Championship Bahamas alors que le field est tombé de 80 à 9 joueurs. L'Américain a emballé 1,9 million à l'Atlantis Resort mais deux joueurs derrière sont aussi très très chauds : Byron Kaverman et Bryn Kenney.
Cinquième du Super High Roller à 100.000$ et troisième du 50.000$, Byron Kaverman est troisième en jetons avec 1,2 million et sera sur la gauche de Petrangelo lors de l'ultime explication. Vainqueur du 50.000$ et d'un 25.000$ imprévu, et 7e du Super High Roller pour un gain cumulé de 1,6 million, Bryn Kenney est aussi toujours là, même s'il sera le shortstack avec 186 000 jetons. Avec presque 11 blindes, l'Américain n'est pas à l'abri d'un comeback dans son resort préféré !
Michael Rocco (1,533,000), Luc Greenwood (1,170,000), Mark Radoja (651,000), Stephen Chidwick (488,000), Nacho Barbero (411,000) et Daniel Negreanu (382,000) complète la finale d'un tournoi dont Igor Kurganov a fait la bulle en 24e position.
Mustapha Kanit et Anton Astapau ont fait l'argent tout comme Timothy Adams, Davidi Kitai, Phil Laak, Sergio Aido ou Sam Greenwood, sorti par son frère Sam.
Le classement complet du tournoi
La partie reprendra avec 16 minutes à jouer dans le niveau 20, samedi à 18 heures. Les 9 derniers survivants se battent pour un premier prix tout juste au dessus des 900 000$. Les finalistes ont assuré un gain de 90,380$.
