Event 2 is now well underway, and as this is a Shootout Event, players must win their table in order to qualify for the final table. Below are some photographs taken during the early stages of the tournament:
Final 3 levels
Daniel Johnston
Day 2 of the All-Stars for Starlight has just come off its last break of the night, and only 3 more 40-minute levels remain before the tournament wraps up for the night. A few players have recently breached the 1-million chip mark, and it’s Daniel Johnston who leads the final 47 players with a stack of 1,423,000.
Once level 26 is completed, the remaining players will bag and tag their chips onto Day 3, which is scheduled for 7pm tomorrow, Monday February 1st.
Here is a look at the current leaderboard, as play enters level 24:
| First Name | Prénom | Last Name | Nom | Stack | Tapis |

Ramnik Singh
There is an interesting story brewing here in Day 2 of the All-Stars for Starlight event, as the current chip leader Ramnik Singh was nearly blinded out today, as he apparently slept through his alarm and only showed up at hand-for-hand, 6 levels into the day. His stack was blinded down from 149,000 to just 26,000 before he finally showed up. He moved all-in twice during hand-for-hand, winning in both cases, and has since grown his stack to an impressive 950,000 total.
Other current big stacks include Kosta Papa (roughly 900,000) and Francis L (roughly 820,000).

Leaderboard and photos
Players from Day 2 of the All-Stars for Starlight are enjoying a short break, and we’ve seen a number of eliminations occur since the bubble burst around one level ago. The field has dropped to 83 players during this time, as the pressure of the money-bubble is no longer present.
Kaylen Nichol took over the chip lead in the hand before the break, and now leads the field with just over 900,000. Here is a look at the top stacks as play enters level 21:
| First Name | Prénom | Last Name | Nom | Stack | Tapis |
|---|---|---|
| Kaylen | Nichol | 901,000 |
| Francis | L | 738,000 |
| Daniel | Johnston | 667,000 |
| Zied Ben | Jaballah | 623,000 |
| Noy | 594,000 | |
| Philip | Tse | 591,000 |
| Alberto | Scuderi | 572,000 |

Players are on a short chip-up break following level 8, as the tournament staff is racing off the T25 chips. Stacks are fairly even in the field at the moment, and only a handful of players have managed to separate themselves from the rest, however we can expect to see a lot of action in the final 5 rounds of play.
Here are the top 3 stacks as play enters level 9:
| First Name | Prénom | Last Name | Nom | Stack | Tapis |
