The Scandinavian Open Poker Championship tournament series is in full swing, and after three days of play on the opening days of the Main Event, 51 players are on the money. You too can come and compete for a guaranteed €250,000 if you pay the €185 buy-in.

Thursday brought two opportunities for players to advance to Day 2 of the Main Event. In the afternoon a lot of players decided to "turn on" the tournament, not only from Slovakia but of course also from Scandinavia.

There were several dozen players from the north in the Banco Casino in Bratislava, which meant 238 entries were generated, 30 of them enjoying the advancement. The chipleader of Day 1C was Norwegian player Markus Markusson with a stack of 1,043,000 chips.

The Turbo Flight was on the agenda in the evening, with "only" 28 players finding their way into it. Of those, four players will look to Day 2, chiplead by Mladen Stojanovic with a stack of 412,000 chips. You can see the names of all the advancers at the end of the article.
