Dia 1 Iniciado
For the second consecutive day, some of the biggest names in poker will gather inside the Hilton Prague for another €25,000 No-Limit Hold’em event at the 2023 PokerStars European Poker Tour Prague beginning at 12:30 p.m local time.
The first big buy-in event of the festival was won by Dutch pro Teun Mulder last night, when he defeated Lithuania’s Paulius Plausinaitis heads-up to earn €180,150 in the 15-entry field. Swedish online legend Niklas Astedt also cashed in third place, while Ole Schemion, Kayhan Mokri, Japan’s all-time leading money winner Tsugunari Toma, and past EPT champions Steve O’Dwyer, Dimitar Danchev, and Ognyan Dimov fell short of the money.

Players once again begin with a starting stack of 100,000. Levels are 30 minutes long and a shot clock will be implemented from the start of play. Late registration is open until the end of Level 10 around 6:15 p.m., with unlimited reentries allowed during the registration period. There is a 15-minute break after every four levels and a 75-minute dinner break scheduled for the end of Level 14 around 8:15 p.m.
It took nearly 17 levels and nine hours of play to crown a champion in yesterday’s star-studded field, and today should be another grueling test as poker’s elite battle for the EPT trophy. PokerNews will be following all the action and providing live updates as the field plays down to a winner today.
The players have begun to take their seats and action should begin momentarily.

On the second hand of the day, Tsugunari Toma raised to 2,500 under the gun before Niklas Astedt three-bet to 7,000 on the button. "Let's gamble," Toma said as he moved all in.
Astedt accidentally said call and attempted to take his chips back. "I said call, didn't I? I just woke up," he said before being forced to put in the chips.
Niklas Astedt: A♥J♥
Tsugunari Toma: A♠K♦
The flop came K♥Q♣6♥ and Toma made top pair, while Astedt picked up straight and flush draws. The turn 6♦ was no help to Astedt, while the 4♠ river sent him off to reenter early in the day.

Niklas Astedt returned to the table for his second bullet within just a few minutes of busting. "He's probably going to win it now," Kayhan Mokri said.
"Now I'm awake," Astedt added.
He then raised to 2,500 in the cutoff and Mokri called on the button, as did Tsugunari Toma in the big blind.
The flop came 3♣10♦10♠ and Astedt bet 3,000. Mokri then raised to 9,000, Toma folded, but Astedt called to the 3♦ turn.
Both players checked and the 7♥ fell on the river. Mokri then bet 30,000 and Astedt snap-called with A♦3♠ for a full house to win the pot.

Dimitar Danchev raised to 2,500 in the cutoff and Kayhan Mokri called in the big blind.
The flop came 9♣10♠4♦ and Danchev continued for 2,000. Mokri called, then folded when Danchev bet another 13,000 on the 2♠ turn.
The next hand, Mokri and big blind Tsugunari Toma went to the flop of 4♦2♠K♣ when Mokri bet 1,000. Toma called and both players checked the 10♥ turn.
Mokri bet another 1,000 on the Q♦ river and Toma called with Q♣3♣ for a pair of queens. Mokri mucked and dropped another early pot.
Hirokazu Kobayashi just took his seat in the tournament.
