Day 2 of the World Series of Poker International Circuit Main Event is set to continue again at 1 pm local time. The exquisite Es Saadi Resort has been hosting the events here over the past few days and they have been wonderful. In total 486 entries, with 156 reentries, have been clocked with 152 hopefuls returning to the felt to pursue the coveted WSOP Circuit Ring.

Garcia Lorca can be found at the top of the overall leaderboard with 315,600 in chips in total which he collected on Day 1b yesterday. Trailing just behind him is the chip leader of Day 1a, Drisse Maouchi, with 310,000 chips. Closing out the podium is Harald Sammer with 296,500 chips.

WSOP International Circuit Rotterdam Winner Ben Bensimhon already has a ring and with a stack of 260,000 in chips, he’s gotten off to a great start in his pursuit towards a second one. So is WSOP Circuit – Global Casino Championship winner Said El Yousfi with 110,000 chips which is still way above average. Other players to keep a close eye on include Alexandre Reard (202,200), Jean Montury (190,000), Laurent [Removed:250] (158,000), and Michiel Brosky (154,000).

Hannes Neurauter (77,200), Mateusz Moolhuizen (76,300), retired footballer Camel Meriem (72,500), Pierre Calamusa (65,500), 2016 WSOP Crazy Eights 2nd place finisher, Michael Lech (61,600), WSOP International Circuit Deepstack winner Smain Mamouni (40,200) have all bagged a below average stack for today so will be looking to run that up to a great stack for Day 3.
