Day 1B is well underway at WPT Marrakech. 222 players registered in either Day 1A or Day 1B and paid 5,000 EURO to have a chance at the WPT Marrakech title. This is not a televised WPT event so it is not a PTPR Premier Event. But, the 1+ million dollar prize pool assures it will be a PTPR Tier 3 Event - nine players will receive points from this event.

Sebastien Homann and Nicolas Levi were the Day 1A chip leaders - currently Ahmed Debabeche, Erik Tamm and Guillaume de la Gorce lead Day 1B - we're currently at Level 10 for the day.
