Kroon Crowned Chip Leader for Day 1c; Horecki and Schneiders Also Advance
Today Day 1c of the 2017 PokerStars Festival Hamburg Main Event started at 1 p.m. local time. This was the final day of the starting days with two flights taking place today. Day 1c had 12 30-minute levels which were shorter than the levels on Day 1a and Day 1b as they played 45-minute levels.
There were 134 entries in total of which 63 players made it through to the bagging stage. Johann Kroon takes the honors of the chip lead for Day 1c with 214,200 chips. Second on that list today is Markus Meekma (180,100). The last one to fill the podium is Daniel Stacey with 130,200 chips.
Other notables that have made it through to Day 2 are the two PokerStars players, Team Pro Marcin Horecki (26,800) and Team Online Felix Schneiders (22,100). They seemed to have kept a pretty low profile at their tables but will be happy to have made it through to tomorrow to show what they're made of.
The players that haven’t made it through today or over the previous day, have another chance in Day 1d. When this flight finishes, the total amount of players returning for Day 2 will be set and they will return to Casino Schenefeld tomorrow, November 25th, 2017 at 1 p.m. local time. The players will start on Level 13 which has a small blind of 1,200, a big blind of 2,400, and a running ante of 400.
Stay tuned to PokerNews for all the action of Day 1d.
