The PokerStars and Barcelona?Casino European Poker Tour continues with the second and final day of the €10,200 Mystery Bounty, and action will resume shortly at 12:30 p.m. local time.
PokerStars Ambassador Sam Grafton will be coming back with a solid stack of 221,000 chips, while Stephen Chidwick (94,500) and Poker Hall of Fame inductee Erik Seidel (45,000) are among those returning with less than the starting stack of 100,000, but they will still have time to make a run.
All players, however, will be chasing Estonia’s Igor Pihela Sr., who bagged the biggest stack of Day 1 by a wide margin with 519,500 chips. Pihela will be turning 69 years old later this week, and he will soon have the opportunity to give himself a nice birthday present.
There are 45 players returning to the felt out of 66 entries so far, and late registration will remain open through Level 10, at approximately 1:30 p.m. The prize pool will be announced at the close of late registration, and the Mystery Bounty prize pool will be announced 60 minutes later.
The Mystery Bounty aspect of the tournament will commence at the start of Level 13, at which time all players will receive a Mystery Bounty Token. Players who eliminate others will collect the Mystery Bounty Token from the eliminated player, which can be redeemed at a designated area where an envelope will be drawn for a prize.
