The final two flights of the Malta Poker Festival concluded day 1 of the Grand Event, smashing the €500k guarantee. Day 1d had a field of just over 400 entries and saw 122 into day 2. The turbo event was slightly smaller with 130 entries and 33 players making the cut. This means that day 2 will host 357 players going into Sunday at the Malta Poker Fest Grand Event.

A clear leader going into day 2, Peter de Bruin bagged an impressive 690,000 and was way ahead of any of the previous days' leaders. He's followed closely by Matt Adams, who finished the day sitting on 629,000. 

The PokerDeals Last Longer Race attracted over 100 entrants, so you have your work cut out for you! In total, there are 102 entries all battling it out in day two to win the coveted first prize of a free buy in to the next Grand Event. The top ten players will all win very cool prizes, sponsored by Guts Poker, NordicBet, Betsson and Deepsolver

Day 1c of the Malta Poker Festival

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!
