Day 1b is a wrap!

The second flight of the Main Even of the Montréal Poker Expo is now complete, and 51 players have survived through the day and locked in a spot for Day 2. Combined with yesterdays 33 players, 84 have already made their seat for Day 2.

Leading the field tonight is Cong Son Dao, who after a huge last level, bagged 319,000 in chips. This still trails yesterday’s chip leader Leandre St-Laurent, but only by a few thousand. Other big stacks of the night include Poorya Nazari (301,300), Jared Newcombe (261,900), Louis Boutin (236,000), Giovanni Massa (234,300), Marcello Miceli (221,800), Chan An Luong (218,600), Miltiadis Mavrigiannakis (196,400), Mike Leah (193,400), amongst others. We will be publishing the full list of player-reported chip counts in a few minutes.

One final flight remains, as Day 1c is scheduled for 11:00am tomorrow. It will surely be a packed flight, so don’t miss your chance to participate in this amazing event brought to you by Playground Poker Club!
