Six 75-Minute Levels Planned for Day 2, Play Continues at Noon
Russia's Andrey Zaichenko is leading for Day 2 of a record-breaking �5,300 EPT Prague Main Event. Zaichenko topped yesterday's 750-strong field with 237,600 in chips, a stack that also beat Day 1a chip leader Russian player Dmitry Ponomarev who had 159,800.
A total of 399 players made it through Day 1b which, combined with Day 1a's 201 survivors, means at least 600 players will be here at noon for Day 2. The total number of players overall stands at 1,092 but players have until the start of Day 2 to buy in.
The plan for the day is to play six 75-minute levels, no dinner break. That means play will be done around 8:15 PM. The first level be 400/800 with an ante of 100, the last level to be played will be three times as big; 1,200/2,400 with an ante of 300.
