After eight levels and four hours of play, Day 1 of the €50,000 Super High Roller Second Chance is in the books here at Casino Barcelona. A total of 20 entries came out today for the last Super High Roller event at this year’s PokerStars European Poker Tour Barcelona stop.
Only 13 players made it to Day 2, with Nick Petrangelo and Jesse Lonis tied at the top of the chip counts after both accumulated 650,000 chips from a starting stack of 250,000 throughout the first eight levels. All seven players who busted fired a second bullet and made it to the end of the day.
Players retain the opportunity to enter until the start of play on Day 2 at 12:30 p.m.

The Days Action
Despite the start of the day being played quite deep, there were massive pots and eliminations from the very first level of the day. By the first break of the day, there were already four eliminations.
Lonis began building his stack on one of the very first hands of the day when he forced a river fold from Jules Dickerson after he shoved the river.
He would continue to run hot early after he ended the first bullet of Jean-Noel Thorel. In a three-bet pot, Lonis would flop middle set against the top pair, top kicker of Thorel, and all of Thorel’s chips found their way into the middle by the river.
Like Thorel, Leonard Maue needed two bullets to make it through to Day 2. He was involved in a massive pre-flop all-in with kings against the queens of Mikael Thuritz. The flop and turn were clean, but a dramatic queen of hearts on the river would end Maue’s first bullet in brutal fashion.
On his second bullet, Dickerson was involved in some entertaining hands. The first of which was a four-bet pot in which Dickerson correctly called a turn shove from Markkos Ladev with third pair. Dickerson then eliminated Ladev the next hand after he flopped top pair following a min-click three-bet with ten-five suited.
Others who needed two bullets to survive the day included Patrik Antonius, who ran pocket tens into the queens of Nick Petrangelo, Morten Klein, and Vladimir Korzinin, who lost a flip with queens against ace-king. Korzinin, however, ran up a nice stack on his second attempt on his way to bagging 617,000.
Toward the end of the night, there was an outrageous hand in which aces, kings, queens, and jacks were all dealt. In the end, Sam Greenwood ended up doubling with aces through the kings of Ottomar Ladva.
Play continues at 12:30 p.m. local time on September 4 at Casino Barcelona. The action will resume in Level 9 with blinds at 3,000/6,000 with a 6,000 big blind ante.

The action was picked up on a flop of A♦10♠6♦ in a hand between Leonard Maue from under the gun, Vladimir Korzinin from the button, and Morten Klein from the big blind.
Korzinin bet from the button for 35,000 and Klein put in the call. Maue responded with a check-jam for 129,000. Korzinin folded while Klein put in the call.
Leonard Maue: A♣9♣ 
Morten Klein: 7♦4♦
Maue held top pair against the flush draw of Klein. The board ran out 3♥Q♥ which was safe for Maue as he collected the full double.

The floor has announced that three more hands will be played to close out the night.

: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Sam Greenwood opened to 11,000 from the hijack and action folded to Ottomar Ladva in the big blind, who shoved for his last 32,500. Greenwood snap-called and a showdown was held.
Ottomar Ladva: A♦5♠
Sam Greenwood: K♥10♥
Ladva held a slight lead with his ace, and the A♠4♣10♠5♣2♠ runout kept him ahead with a pair of aces for the much-needed double up.
