The partypoker Pros are Getting Active Early On
The day has just begun but the partypoker pros came to play and they are providing all of the action early on. At one table, Kristen Bicknell and Manig Loeser were heads-up in a pot with around 550,000 already in the middle. The flop came 
and Loeser led out for 210,000 which Bicknell called. The 
landed on the turn and Loeser bet 1,000,000, enough to put Bicknell to the test for all of her chips but she quickly folded.
At the table next door, Marcel Luske has joined the action and found himself seated with Joni Jouhkimainen and Joao Simao. Joukhimainen raised to 45,000 in the cutoff and Luske called from the big blind. The flop fell 
and Luske check-called a bet of 75,000 from Joukhimainen.
The turn was the 
and Luske checked again. Joukhimainen fired another 140,000 and Luske called to see the 
on the river. Luske led out for 200,000 this time and his partypoker teammate thought for a minute before letting his cards go.
The field has grown to 314 entries thus far with just 205 players remaining. Isaac Haxton is closing in on the chip lead after taking down a pot against Peter Jetten. Haxton held one of the bigger stacks at the start of the day but is now up to around 4,300,000.
