We have spotted a few famous faces on our first scout of the room and one table in particular has caught our attention. Table 3 is the home to Kara Scott, Steve van Zadelhoff, Ronnie Bardah and Fabrice Soulier, which is far from ideal from any of the trio currently seated there.
Hello and welcome to a scorching Malta where in just a few minutes the players who have chosen Day 1b as their starting fight for the WPT Malta Main Event will take to their seats in the vast tournament area of the Casino at Portomaso.
We are expecting a much larger crowd than yesterday with a whole host of players re-entering after busting out on Day 1a including the back-to-back WPT champion Marvin Rettenmaier. There should also be a splattering of big name pros entering the foray including Vanessa Selbst, Jason Mercier, Kara Scott, Giovanni Rizzo, Tony G and many more.
Like yesterday, we will be playing eight 60-minute levels with a 75-minute dinner break after the sixth level. This means we should be bagging and tagging for around 23:00 CET.
Hold onto your hats, this should be a great day of poker!
