Action is now underway in The Grand, with $200,000 guaranteed. Mike Rodgrigues from Canada still leads the way in a field of 60 players with 1.925 million chips. Leon Sturm, Martein Van Esch, Shannon Thomsen and Fabio Sperling round out the top five, with Sperling bagging 1.666 million for the Final Phase.

There is three hours of late registration available, so lots of time to get in the game. Players can re-enter once if they bust before the registration period is over.

Stay tuned through the day for updates on The Grand and all the other action going on at partypoker today.
