Welcome to Day 2 of the OlyBet Kings of Tallinn of Tallinn Main Event
Welcome to Day 2 of the Kings of Tallinn €1,100 Main Event at Olympic Park Casino and Hilton Park Hotel located in the heart of the Estonian capital.
Players traveled from near and far to play in the Main Event with 318 entrants joining the field on Day 1. This is already 50 more than the record of 268 entrants established during last year's Kings of Tallinn Main Event. The record will be further extended with late-registration allowed until the conclusion of the first blind level of Day 2.
A total of 168 players survived yesterday's action with Lithuania's Vasilijus Piskunovas leading the way to start the day with a huge stack of 189,900 in chips. Behind him are Dutch poker player Teun Hernar Mulder in second place with 170,400 in chips and Lithuania's Alexandras Voisnis in third place with 164,600.
Also well in the mix are three of Europe's most successful poker players including Finland's Ilari Sahamies (64,200), Anton "AnteSvante" Wigg (37,000), and 2019 WSOP Europe Main Event winner Jack Sinclair (31,700). Last year's winner Juha Helppi is also still in contention with 47,300 in chips.
Additionally, four Team OlyBet members bagged chips yesterday including Dmitrijs Meless (96,000), Carmen-Elina Vist (55,900) and Raigo Aasmaa (34,600).
Day 2 of the Main Event will kick off at 12 p.m. local time with blinds at 500/1,000 and an ante of 1,000. As was the case yesterday, today will feature eight hour-long blind levels with 15-minute breaks scheduled after every two blind levels.
