If you've been following us closely, you certainly didn't miss the record-breaking Poker North Masters event at Card Casino in Bratislava, which offers players a €500,000 guarantee with an €800 buy-in.
The action in the second classic flight 1C started off at a stronger pace than the opening 1A, but even so, its final numbers were weaker than expected. The eight introductory levels took care of a total of 153 entries, which together contributed more than a hundred thousand euros to the guarantee.
The plan for this day sounded clear, namely to make it through 14 levels. At the end of the day, we saw a really interesting storm, which cost the tournament lives of many good players. So exactly 40 players got to pack their stacks, and made it too the next stage of the tournament!

Traditionally, at eight o'clock in the evening, in addition to flight 1C, the gates of the accelerated turbo flight 1D, which produced 23 entries, opened. They managed to form a group of 8 advacing players, led by Czech professional Michal Mrakeš!
Chipcount postupujúcich z dňa 1D turbo:
- Michal Mrakeš - 566,000
- Rudolf Kosa - 534,00

At this moment, the total sum of entries shows the number 261, which speaks clearly in the language of money - more than €300,000 is currently missing from the half-million guarantee! Only the final flight 1E, which will take off at 2:00 p.m., and then turbo 1F, which will open its doors at 8:00 p.m., will be able to make up for this huge deficit. Of course, we will not be missing from this, but we believe that we all have something to look forward to!
