Registration has just closed in The Second Chance, and a total of 135 players have turned up for this $1,500 + $150 NL Hold’em 2-day event. Running alongside the $10,000 High-Roller and Day 4 of the WPT Montreal, this 14th Event of the Playground Poker Fall Classic features a number of local and international pros.
Through 6 levels of play, we’ve only seen a handful of eliminations, and no player has really taken off with the chip lead just yet. The biggest stack in the room belongs to Nimer Ltaif, who sits on nearly 75K. Other top stack include Lucas Soucek (66K), Garry Lucci (64K), Alex Fortin Demers (63K) and George Kazarian (62K).
In a few minutes we will publish a first round of photos from the field, as well as all the prize pool and payout information.
