Fabian Rolli Leads Final 9 of the 10,000 MAD Marrakech Poker Open Main Event

Out of the 215 entrants recorded in the 10,000 MAD Marrakech Poker Open Main Event, only 9 players remain, here at the Es Saadi Resort in Marrakech.

The day was scheduled to end at the end of Level 23 or when the finalists were determined. As expected, the second option occurred first after the field decreased from 58 players to nine on Day 2.

Among these players, Fabian Rolli had one of the shortest stacks of the field when the bubble burst, and he was last in chips during the three-table redraw. However, the Swiss player managed to come back and ended the day as the chip leader with 1,830,000 chips, more than 70 big blinds.
