Update on Team PokerStars Pros

Team PokerStar Pros suffered their first victim of the day as Andre Akkari was sent to the rail during the second level of play. He was short stacked from an earlier hand with Mike Matusow that left him with around 12,000 in tournament chips. Another Pro struggling early on is Dario Minieri who is down to 10,000 chips.

While Akkari didn’t fare too well in the Main Event other Team PokerStars Pros are building up their chip stacks. Richard Toth is up 37,000 chips. He recently picked up an 8,000 chip pot where the board ran out {a-Hearts} {q-Hearts} {3-Clubs} {8-Diamonds} {k-Diamonds} and he turned over {a-} {2-} to take it down. Eugene Katchalov and Maxim Lykov each have over starting stack with 36,400 and 45,200 respectively.
