Welcome to Day 2 of the 2023 $1,050 PokerStars Spring Championship of Online Poker (SCOOP) Main Event . The action is set to kick off at 12:35 p.m. Eastern Time and the field will play well into the money, with the plan being to leave only 80 competitors with chips at the end of the day.
On Day 1, 3,845 entries were made by 2,664 unique players. Out of them, only 1,278 found a way to Day 2. Canada’s ”Zabiggesmaj” bagged the chip lead with a whopping 1,469,772 chips, equating to almost 15 starting stacks and 250 big blinds. Christoph "26071985" Vogelsang (1,067,360) and Roman "RomeOpro" Romanovsky (1,047,595) also found themselves with over one million chips at the end of the day, and thus in the top ten of the leaderboard.

When play ended on Day 1, the $4,000,000 guaranteed prize pool had not been reached yet. However, with late registration being open until the start of today, that is very likely to change. At the time of writing the clock reads 3,981 entries, with a top prize of over $570,000. Those numbers are sure to still rise, as many more are expected to take a final shot at becoming a SCOOP Main Event champion in the hour that remains until play commences.
Among those that have already made a reentry for the starting stack of 100,000 are Daniel "SmilleThHero" Smiljkovic, Gilles "TaxationIsTheft" Simon, and Pedro "kurtWSOP" Cavalieri. PokerStars Ambassador Fintan “easywithaces” Hand will also make a last-minute appearance, as he was the only one of the “Red Spades” who did not succeed in making Day 2.
As stated, the tournament will recommence at 12:35 p.m. Eastern Time. The blinds will start at 3,000/6,000 with an ante of 750, and Day 2 will last for as many 20-minute levels as it takes to whittle the field down from over 1,400 people to the final 80.
Stay tuned as PokerNews will provide all of the exciting action on the bubble-bursting Day 2 of SCOOP 108-M: $1,050 Main Event, as well as the $109 Low and $10,300 High versions of the tournament.
Late registration has just closed and a total of 4,206 entries have been made. 1,626 players are left, with the money being reached when 591 of them are left.
The prize pool has reached a total of $4,206,000 and the eventual champion will take home $600,639.75, over 600 buy-ins.

Fintan "easywithaces" Hand had rebought at the start of the day and was sitting in the big blind with a stack of 78,781 chips. The action folded around to "__P0o_P0o__" in the small bind, and they jammed all in, covering Hand's stack. Hand made the call and was at risk of an early night.
Fintan "easywithaces" Hand: K♦8♠
"__P0o_P0o__": Q♠6♣
Hand was ahead preflop, but "__P0o_P0o__" flopped top pair on Q♦10♠3♥. The turn 4♦ and river 8♣ did not bring a king for hand, and he was one of the many eliminations in the first minutes of play.
On another table, Parker "tonkaaaa" Talbot also saw his main event dreams come to an end.

Christoph "26071985" Vogelsang started the day in the top ten chip counts but has swiftly fallen out of it. He endured his latest loss when "giannisLg" open-shoved 89,089 from the cutoff and Vogelsang made the call from the button. The two remaining players folded and the cards were tabled.
"giannisLg": A♦6♥
Christoph "26071985" Vogelsang: A♥10♥
Vogelsang was set to score another knock-out, but the deck had other ideas when it flopped a 2♦6♠4♦ board. The J♥ turn remained clean for "giannisLg", and the A♣ river upgraded him to two pair.
A small setback for Vogelsang, as his stack decreases to under one million.

Lasse "Wistern" Jagd Lauritsen raised to 14,000 from under the gun and "Sacrisfoll94" defended their big blind. The flop came 8♦K♦7♠ and Jagd Lauritsen fired a bet of 11,286 before "Sacrisfoll94" put in the check-raise to 51,000. Jagd Lauritsen made the call and did the same for "Sacrisfoll94"s 72,000 bet on the 4♥ turn.
The 9♣ river completed the board and "Sacrisfoll94" put Jagd Lauritsen all-in for 137,983, about half the size of the pot. Jagd Lauritsen made his final call of the hand and, as it turned out, of the tournament.
"Sacrisfoll94" showed 8♠8♥ for a flopped set, outclassing the A♦K♣ for top-top of Jagd Lauritsen. Jagd Lauritsen was eliminated and joined the dozens of player that have exited the tournament since the start of play.

PokerStars' Rafael "GM_VALTER" Moraes was down to a mere 66,500 chips and he shoved them all in from the hijack. "Lolulostgg" rejammed his 221,389 stack from the button and the blinds folded.
Rafael "GM_VALTER" Moraes: A♥K♣
"Lolulostgg": 9♥9♣
A flip for Moraes' tournament life. However, what some refer to as the "stars nuts" held true to its name, as the board ran out an inconspicuous 7♠5♦5♠8♦3♦.
Moraes was booted from the table, while "Lolulostgg" chipped up to an around average stack.
