Main Event Dia 1b | UK & Ireland Poker Tour Galway

We're back for our second start day here on the West Coast of Ireland for UKIPT Main Event and all eyes will be on the number of runners the event receives today. Yesterday the board read 231 which means that Day 1B needs 769 players to avoid an overlay. Now, that is a lot of people to make up on a second start day so you can guarantee that every person and their grandmother with a spare €1,000 will be looking to head to Galway today in the hopes of making the most of that potential overlay.

It's going to get very busy today, that's for sure.

We've got the online master himself, Full Tilt Professional Viktor Blom, making an appearance, as are Full Tilt Ambassadors Dermot Blain and Sinem Melin - both of whom made finals in side events yesterday in the High Roller and 6-max respectively. Team PokerStars Pro Jake Cody is also around while Dave 'Devilfish' Ulliott and former EPT winner Roberto Romanello are also making an appearance.

So if you've got the money, you might want to get down here to the Full Tilt Poker Village in Galway. You never know, you could be walking out in a few days time as a very rich person...
