Welcome to Day 1c/d of the Winamax SISMIX festival Main Event
The Winamax SISMIX poker festival continues at the Casino de Marrakech in the Es Saadi Resort. Day 1c of the €500 (5,500 Dirham) Main Event, the third of four starting flights, is set to take place at 12:00 local time. This will be followed by Day 1d, the final flight, which kicks off at 7 p.m.
Players in Day 1c will start with a stack of 50,000 chips and blinds will begin at 100/200 with a 200 big blind ante. Blind levels run for 30 minutes with a break every four levels. Day 1d is the turbo flight with 15-minute blind levels.
Once again, players will have the option to re-enter each flight once. Those who make it through to Day 2 will already be in the money. And as the trademark of SISMIX events, the tournament will run six-handed, giving players plenty of chance to jazz it up with fancy play.
So far, 1,036 entries have been made and 174 players have already made the money. Day 1a concluded with Javier Tsunamy taking the lead with one million chips. He was outdone on Day 1b by Jeremy Palvini, who finished with 1,130,000 chips.
On the entertainment side of things, SISMIX never fails to amaze. Today will include a pool party with Stone Van Brooken and a Blind Test. Tonight’s Theatro club night will see DJs Nicolas Monier, Psyone and A-B Boy bringing the vibes to the dancefloor.
PokerNews will be bringing live coverage from the tournament floor for the duration of the Main Event, so stay tuned to follow the action.
