WSOPC Main Event
Jour 1b terminé
Another record was broken at the WSOP Circuit Marrakech at the Casino de Marrakech inside the luxurious Es Saadi Resort. After three flights, the 15,000 MAD Main Event attracted a total of 1,163 entrants, surpassing last year's count of 1,041 players.
On Day 1b, 579 runners attempted to qualify for Day 2, but only 104 players succeeded. Among them, Adrien Sanz built a very big stack after the dinner break, and maintained it until the end (540,000).
He was expected to be the chip leader of the Day. But during the last hands, Jean-Pierre Grand-Moursel won a massive 570,000 chip-pot in a three-way all-in, and became the overall chip leader. At his table, a player nicknamed "Galicianarmy" was as lucky as Grand-Moursel in the last minutes and ended the Day with 456,000 chips.

All the 245 players still in the tournament, including the 64 players out of 152 entrants who bagged on Day 1c Turbo, will be back tomorrow, Saturday, January 2 at 1 p.m. for Day 2 of the Main Event. The action resumes on Level 15 with blinds of 2,000/4,000 with a 4,000 big blind ante.

After fourteen levels, 104 players remain at the end of Day 1b. They have qualified for Day 2.
Stay tuned for full chip counts and a recap of the day's action.
On Table 201, action was caught on the river on a board of 6♠7♥3♦A♦Q♥ with Abdelkarim Sdiri all-in for 165,000 chips in middle position, Jean-Pierre Grand-Moursel all-in too for more than 200,000 chips in the cutoff, and Abdallah Slaoui at risk from the small blind for a bit less than 100,000 chips.
Abdallah Slaoui: K♠K♣
Abdelkarim Sdiri: 10♠10♣
Jean-Pierre Grand-Moursel: 6♣6♥
Grand flopped two pair and scooped this massive pot and become the overall chipleader.
On the next hand, the dealer fanned a flop of J♥K♠A♣, and it was Franco Munafo's turn to be at risk for approximately 160,000 from early position against Galiciaarmy in the small blind.
Franco Munafo: J♠J♦
Galiciaarmy: A♥K♣
Munafo was in the lead with his set. But the terrible A♦ on the turn gave a full house to Galiciaarmy, leading to Mufano's elimination just before the end of the Day

The clock is now on pause. Like on Day 1a, six more hands will be played tonight before wrapping up.
Petrouchka raised to 6,000 from middle position, then only Samy Benjima in the cutoff called.
Benjima snap-called a continuation bet of 5,500 on a 2♥10♠J♦ flop, then both players checked on the turn 2♦.
There was no more action on the river 10♦, as both players checked again.
Petrouchka flipped over 8♦8♣ for two pair. Smiling, Benjima revealed 7♥7♦ and lost the pot.
