The last flights of the WPT Prime Liechtenstein Championship were played yesterday with a buy-in of CHF 1,100 and a guarantee of CHF 1,000,000. Everyone was waiting anxiously to see if the current record of 1,666 entries set by WPT Prime Taiwan could be broken.
The tournament brought in a total of 1,411 entries and thus has a prizepool worth CHF 1,411,000. 179 players have advanced to today's Day 2 and all are already assured of at least CHF 2,000. There is CHF 209,120 waiting for the winner and the prize already includes a ticket to the WPT World Championship worth $10,400.
Yesterday's pair of flights brought 735 entries and we have met 93 more advancers. None of the players managed to accumulate more chips than Josef Gulas Sr. and so he will enter Day 2 as chipleader.
