Quick Recap of Day 1C of the Malta Poker Fest Grand Event

It was another big day at the Malta Poker Fest Grand Event , where a field of 321 entries took part in day 1c, hopeful for a place in Sunday's day 2. A total of 88 players made it through, increasing the number of players for day 2 to 202 so far. With two flights still remaining, Sunday promises to be an impressive field. Bagging an impressive chip lead for day 1c was Oscar Arezzo , who goes into Sunday with a cool 510,000. Katie Swift was unfortunately knocked out of the tournament after having her aces cracked... twice. We look forward to seeing her host the Ladies First event on Saturday. You can catch updates on the ladies' tournament on our Facebook and Instagram Pages, so keep a lookout! The PokerDeals Last Longer race attracted another 55 contestants, of which 17 made it through. With the promise of a buy-in to the next Malta Poker Festival Grand event, it's something that every player should get involved in! Remember, it's free to enter ! All you have to do is register and make sure to enter your details after you've confirmed your email address. Join the race today!

The turbo event, day 1e, will be held at 9pm and things will be a little different. The blind levels will be 20 mins long, however, the event won't conclude as usual after 13 blind levels. Rather, when 26% of the field remains. We look forward to seeing you at the tables, and as always, good luck!
