Adrian Mateos Looking For Another Big Score

Another massive field gathered for the first Day of the 2017 PokerStars Championship Barcelona €10,300 High Roller. In what is perhaps the most popular €10k tournament on European soil, 542 entries were already made during the first ten hours of play. The field eclipsed the 500-runner mark for the third year in a row and is likely to increase even further with late registration being open until the cards are underway for Day 2 at 12.30 p.m. local time.

Leading the way is Spain's David Lopez Llacer, who bagged 362,100 on Day 1. A slew of notables have the Spaniard in their sights, with Markus Durnegger (315,500), Adrian Mateos (299,800), Christopher Kruk (292,900) and Raul Martinez (281,500) rounding out the top 5. Online prodigy Linus "LLinusLLove" Loeliger (274,200) and EPT13 Prague winner Jasper Meijer van Putten (230,100) also sit near the top of the leaderboard.

The red spade will be represented by Jake Cody (204,500) Bertrand "ElkY Grospellier (125,000), Jeff Gross (111,300), and Felipe "Mojave" Ramos (104,000). Daniel Negreanu fell by the wayside on the first day and is out of reentries.

Like yesterday, 10 levels of 60-minutes each are scheduled with a 75-minute dinner break after level 14. Blinds will resume in the 1,000/2,000 level with a running ante of 300, giving those who jump in at the latest possible time a fresh stack of 25 big blinds to work with. As the registration is still open, the Day 2 seat draw won't be published until the cards are in the air, and payouts are expected to be finalized within the first two levels of play.
