Welcome to Day 2 of the ￡5,300 partypokerLIVE MILLIONS Main Event
With players from Day 1a- Day 1e joining together, the Day 2 field of the ￡6million guaranteed partypokerLIVE MILLIONS is sure to be a battle of the highest level. Some of the world's best tournament poker players will be at Dusk Till Dawn Casino in Nottingham to battle towards a seat on Day 3 tomorrow, where players from across Europe who have made it through Day 2 in Vienna, St. Vincent and San Remo combine for the final showdown.
After yesterday's Day 1e, the chip leader was Francis Foord-Brown with 7,700,000, a fraction above the Day 1d leader Neel Murthy's stack (7,365,000). Both men will have high hopes of making Day 3 with a chip count to challenge for that elusive million-pound top prize, but they'll have plenty of company in the chasing pack from their opening days at the felt.
Other challengers will filter in the field today, including two of Britain's finest poker exports. Liv Boeree and partypoker ambassador Sam Trickett both qualified for Day 2 by doing battle way back in November as part of the partypoker Caribbean Adventure in Punta Cana. They've waited five months for their Day 2, but they will be keener than ever to grab a share of the prize-pool, especially the ￡1 million top prize.
