Day 1b of the 2022 WSOP International Circuit at King's Kicks Off at 2pm
After a successful first starting day, the flagship €1,700 Main Event of the 2022 WSOP International Circuit in Rozvadov is on track to meet and surpass the €1,000,000 guarantee. Europe's biggest poker arena at the King's Resort saw 335 entries turn up and 108 players already booked their tickets for Day 2.
Many more will follow as the second and final starting stack is slated to get underway at 2pm local time. Once more, nine levels of 60 minutes each are scheduled and there will be a 15-minute break every two levels. Furthermore, the 30-minute dinner break for a quick trip to the casino buffet takes place after level four. The action will conclude just after midnight local time.
All participants receive 50,000 in chips and can purchase up to two re-entries throughout the day in case they come up empty-handed. The first blinds are 100-200 with a big blind ante of 200, providing all contenders 250 big blinds worth of ammunition after sitting down for the first level.
Main Event Day 1 Level Structure
| Duration | Level | Small Blind | Big Blind | Big Blind Ante |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 60 | 1 | 100 | 200 | 200 |
| 60 | 2 | 100 | 300 | 300 |
| 60 | 3 | 200 | 400 | 400 |
| 60 | 4 | 200 | 500 | 500 |
| 60 | 5 | 300 | 600 | 600 |
| 60 | 6 | 400 | 800 | 800 |
| 60 | 7 | 500 | 1,000 | 1,000 |
| 60 | 8 | 600 | 1,200 | 1,200 |
| 60 | 9 | 800 | 1,600 | 1,600 |
The late registration remains open until the start of level 12, giving all those late entrants a shot for the first two levels on Day 2. Chip leader so far is Kosovo's Valon Olluri, who successfully re-entered and accumulated 552,500. Josef Huber was the only other player above half a million in chips and advanced with 535,000. Whether or not anyone on Day 1b will surpass either of these impressive stack sizes remains to be seen.
Defending champion Andrea Ricci was among the notable casualties on Day 1a and will very likely return today to try and defend his title. The same also applies for the WSOP Europe bracelet winners Antoine Vranken, Emil Bise, and 2021 WSOPE Europe Main Event champion Josef Gulas Jr.
Stay tuned for all the action from King's Resort as the PokerNews live reporting team will be on the floor until a winner has been crowned on January 25, 2022.

Fireworks From Gicovanu Right Out of the Gate
Niveau 1
: 100/200, 200 ante
While all players start with 250 big blinds, it doesn't mean that the action is necessarily slow in the first level. A very large pot developed in essentially the first hand when Marius Gicovanu battled with Atanas Nikolov. Some 58,000 were in the middle to the 
river on which Gicovanu moved all-in.
Nikolov had already invested more than half of his stack and eventually surrendered.

De Meulder Back in Action
Niveau 1
: 100/200, 200 ante
Matthias de Meulder was among the Day 1a casualties and opted to re-enter the second starting day. He just raised to 500 and was called by Ilyas Oualaouch out of the blinds. Both players checked the 
flop and Oualaouch then bet the 
turn for 600, earning a call from de Meulder.
On the 
river, Oualaouch bet another 1,600 and won the pot uncontested.

Moagi Takes From Albanese
Niveau 1
: 100/200, 200 ante
Michael Nuesslein already lost half of his stack as Vito Branciforte thrived early on and the same table also featured another interesting hand as well. Natale Albanese opened from under the gun to get called by both players in the blinds including Cecil Moagi.
Only Moagi check-called for 700 on the 
flop and did so again for 1,600 on the 
turn. After the 
river, Moagi checked and Albanese bet 6,500 and Moagi tanked for a minute before calling. As the first player after the button, Moagi rolled over 
and Albanese mucked.
