The players who qualified for Day 2 of the Montréal Poker Expo are filtering in to the Tournament Hall and taking their seats where they will find their sealed bags full (some more, some less) of the chips they accumulated during Day 1.
There are 171 players left in the event and the money bubble player will be the one eliminated in 73rd place – 72 places pay. So there should be a fairly decent amount of play before the bubble starts to really affect the play too much. That being said, we can also anticipate an early flurry of eliminations as short-stacked players try to establish themselves for the rest of the day.
Blind levels today will lengthen to 60 minutes and the tournament re-starts in level 14 (1.2K/2.4K/a400). Play is 9-handed and will continue for 8 levels today, at which time the remaining players will bag up their chips to return on Day 3.
Good luck to everyone still in the action!
