Rumors are floating around that the Main Event will play one more extra level tonight, so playing seven instead of six levels. If that's the case, which depends on how many players are still playing when level six starts, there will be a dinner break, and then one more 90-minute level.
So don't make dinner reservations just yet, it's unsure what the situation will be tonight.

"Couldn't win a hand today..." sighed former EPT9 London winner Ruben Visser as he wandered off into the casino when we bumped into him.
"I had

From early position, the man who holds the record for most consecutive cashes in the World Series of Poker Main Event with five in a row (2010-2014), Ronnie Bardah, opened with a raise to 2,300. Next to action in middle position was the recently-moved Byron Kaverman, who took over the seat that Kyle Julius once occupied. Kaverman took his time like he so often does, and then three-bet to 5,500. In the hijack seat, Vesa Leikos moved all in for 27,300.
Play folded back to Bardah, and he gave it a moment of thought before folding his hand. Kaverman also took a moment to think, but folded as well, and Leikos won the pot.

There were an estimated 13 entries at the start of Day 2. Among those who got in at the very last second was John Juanda, winner of numerous titles and bracelets, but still searching for that elusive EPT win to complete the "Triple Crown." Juanda came closest when he finished second to David Vamplew at EPT London back in Season 7.

Kitty Kuo had a chance late yesterday to be amongst the chip leaders at the start of the day but her opponent rivered a full house and took a decent chunk of change from her stack. Not long ago she three-bet a short-stack player holding 
and got it in on an 
flop. Her opponent had 
and hit a on the turn so her demeanour today is not particularly happy as her legion of twitter followers will know.
It’s not all doom and gloom though and she certainly isn’t giving up. Kuo opened from the button for 2,000 and picked up one caller in the big blind. A flop of 
saw a continuation bet of 2,000 from Kuo get the job done.

You're three hands from the end of EPT Barcelona Day 1B and a new player decides to sit down with an untouched 50 big blind stack. He open shoves. What are you going to call him with — bearing in mind you've worked ten hours for your stack, but he could have any two? Jake Cody, Kyle Julius and Andre Akkari give their opinions to PokerStars Blog.
Michael Mizrachi started out as one of the biggest stacks in the room, but he has a neighbor on his left who can be quite irritant to deal with. EPT Berlin Champion Davidi Kitai is up to around 160,000 and is seated on Mizrachi's immediate left. Just now we saw a little example of this.
Mizrachi limped for 1,000 from early position, and Kitai isolated to 3,800. Everyone but Mizrachi folded, and the two of them saw a flop.
Both players checked the 
flop, and the 
hit the turn. Mizrachi carefully tapped the table, and called the 5,000 bet Kitai tossed in.
The river brought the to the table, pairing the board and bringing in the possible back door flush draw. Mizrachi checked again, and folded after Kitai pushed 10,000 forward.
