Moneymaker’s Road to PSPC Continues with Day 2 Kicking Off at 2pm
![[user358178]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
It has been an epic week, with eight starting flights taking place here at Aspers Casino Westfield Stratford City and Aspers Casino Milton Keynes over the past five days. In total 753 entries have created a prize pool of £90,360. Added to that is a Platinum Pass (worth around $30,000) to the PSPC 2020, which takes place in Barcelona next year, so there is an awful lot at stake for the 126 players who survived to day 2.
Edgar Drozdov (620,000) is the one to catch, starting as overall chip leader after dominating the Day 1b flight on Tuesday. Georgian Georgescu (507,000), Victor Nitel (490,000), Nikolay Ponomarev (476,000), PokerStars Pro Chris Moneymaker (470,000), William Miskelly (470,000), Timotheos Timotheou (447,000), Vitali Pasci (446,500), Shari Filton (419,000) and Yosef Lubovich (382,500) make up the top ten chip stacks starting the day today.
There are still some big names in contention who will certainly be worth keeping an eye on. Gary Miller (353,000), Christopher Yong (291,000) Artan Dedusha (286,000), former Platinum Pass winner Salvatore Donato (250,000), William Kassouf (198,000), Guy Taylor (170,500), Jen-Yue Chiang (162,000), Ben Winsor (127,000) and Marc Inizan (63,000) are all still in the running.
Levels will remain 30 minutes long and the tournament will play down to either the final table or the end of 15 levels, whichever comes first. As if there hasn’t been enough excitement already, today will be the first day of live streaming coverage, with the feature table set up and ready to go.
On top of that, there will be live updates here at PokerNews to look forward, with coverage starting from the moment cards are in the air, right up to the end of play.
