    Upeshka De Silva is having a good day so far, as he was the first player to double up. Not only is he happy, but so is the player siting next to him! Unfortunately we didn’t catch the hand that helped him jump into the early chip lead, but his smile tells the story.

    While poker is about competition, it is also a community. As you can see, Upeshka and his tablemate decided to get some massages to relax, mentally preparing for the day to come.

    If you want to come join the action (and maybe make a new friend) the Main Event Day 1B is the place to be! Registration is open all day.

    After over nine hours of intense poker action, our WPT Montreal Main Event Day 1A is officially in the books. There were 80 total entries (including 9 re-entries), and at the end of the day 41 players were still standing, ready for Day 2 which comes up on Thursday November 1, 2018 at noon. All of them will have a shot at winning part of the guaranteed $5,000,000 prize pool.

    Although the chip lead went back and forth throughout the day, in the end it was owned by the same player for the last 2 levels, Mr. Marius Kikinezhdi, who ended the day with a great run of cards on top of his solid play. The leader board can be seen below.

    Also, don’t forget that you can join the Main Event by buying in for Day 1B (Tuesday) or Day 1C (Wednesday). In fact, you can even buy in on Day 2 (Thursday) if you want, right up to the end of the registration period, which will close after 3 levels of play on Thursday.

    Congrats to all the players moving on. See you at the tables!

    After 12 levels of play, Day 2 of the WPT500 has come to an end with 35 players finding a bag for tomorrow’s Day 3. So far players have secured a payday of at least $3,750, but all eyes are on the cool $200,000 top prize. A top 15 finish will earn a 5-figure payout, with the top 2 taking home 6-figures each.

    Geoffrey Hum (pictured) found the heaviest bag through 2 days of poker, ending Day 2 with 5,670,000 in chips. Second in chips belongs to Vasilios Gerontakos (4,405,000), while Trevor Argue (4,025,000) bagged the third biggest stack.

    Full counts of the remaining players will be published momentarily, along with the Day 3 seating assignments. There will be a full seating redraw at 24 players, 16 players and for the 9-handed final table.

    Join us tomorrow for live coverage of the conclusion of the WPT500, as we play down to our tournament champion. Cards are in the air at 12pm.

    It is just after midnight and the players at today’s Main Event have been at it for eight hours (including breaks). Some are doing well, others not so much. But Mauricio Pais isn’t going to let a little something like a recent bust ruin his night!

    To briefly recap: Mauricio was busted just before the last break – less than an hour ago – by the (now) chip leader Marius Kikinezhdi. His jacks were beaten by a straight. Not so out of the ordinary, so far as it goes. But as we toured the remaining tables, there he was again at table 62! And not only that, he’s smiling!

    Instead of making another run at one of the two other Main Event Day 1s (happening Tuesday and Wednesday this week), he has decided to grab the opportunity right away. The man won’t be cowed, he will make Day 2 of this tournament. That is, unless he has a very unlucky last hour.

    Best of luck to him and the 48 other players still seated at the tables!

    Mauricio Pais
