Jour 2 a débuté
In one hour from now at 12.30 p.m. local time, the 2017 PokerStars Championship Macau will see at least 78 players return to the tables of the PokerStars Live Macau poker room at City of Dreams for Day 2 of the HK$103,000 High Roller. So far there have been 174 entries, including 39 re-entries, and all players that were eliminated on Day 1 after only firing one bullet, as well as new players, can still register before the cards are back in the air.
Leading the star-studded field so far is Nick Petrangelo with 274,000, and the American poker pro is looking to better his two second-place finishes in High Roller tournaments for a combined score of more than $500,000 during this festival. Local players Xiaoyang Luo (266,800) and Yang Wang (264,000) are close behind, followed by Live Satellite winner Neel Murthy (259,400) and Canada's Troy Quenneville (239,200).
There are plenty of big names and talented players left with above average stacks including Michael Addamo (220,000), Paul-Francois Tedeschi (216,100), Raghav Bansal (205,700), Sofia Lovgren (193,100), Daniel Dvoress (192,300), Dan Smith (182,100), Sergey Lebedev (181,200), two-time Red Dragon champion Tom Alner (148,100), Vladimir Troyanovskiy (139,700), HK$400,000 Super High Roller champion Steve O'Dwyer (116,000), David Peters (115,700), and John Juanda (114,100).
All three Team PokerStars representatives also made it through to Day 2 with the Team Pros Felipe "Mojave" Ramos (85,000), Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier (51,000) and Team Online's Randy Lew (23,700) still in contention.
The players keep their 30-second time bank chips from the previous day and action will resume with level 11 and blinds of 1,000-2,000 and a running ante of 300, giving late entrants 25 big blinds on their mission for High Roller glory. A maximum of 10 levels of 60 minutes each are scheduled for the penultimate day of the event, or until the official final table of the last eight is reached, whichever of the two comes first.

Players are easing into action here in the HK$103,000 High Roller Single Re-entry but we have no big hands to speak of.
Bertrand Grospellier tried to get something going with a late position min-raise but was immediately shut down by big blind Adrian Attenborough who moved in over the top and while the Frenchman thought it over he eventually let it go.
There is an interesting table draw with Day 1 chip leader Nick Petrangelo, Steve O’Dwyer, Sofia Lovgren and Dan Smith all seated at the same table and all four players have decent sized stacks so there may be some fireworks later.
Action folded over to Steve O’Dwyer on the button and he made it 5,500 to go, with big blind Dan Smith the only caller. Smith checked the flop over to O’Dwyer, who continuation bet 4,500.
Smith called once more and it was off to the turn. Another quick check from Smith saw O’Dwyer fire again, this time for 12,000 and that’s enough to get Smith to give it up.
