Ok, I admit it, "if the shoe fits" is one terrible pun and a bad way of using Fabrice Soulier's name in the title of this article .. but, does the fact that I'm French somehow give me a free pass? :)
Fabrice Soulier (pictured) destroyed the field during Thursday's Day 2 play. The man holds a close to 2:1 chip over his third place opponent, and we still have over 100 players still in the running. Quite an impressive Day 2 for the Everest Poker Sponsored Pro.
The "bridesmaid of the EPT", Martin Jacobson, who finished runner-up at EPT Vilamoura and EPT Deauville in the last year, currently sits 5th in chips.
Defending EPT Barcelona winner Kent Lundmark is also in the hunt, sitting 12th in chips after Day 2 play.
Oh and the last two major winners - Vladimir Geshkenbein (38th) and Roberto Romanello (60th) are hanging around.
Here are the notable chip stacks heading into Day 3:
> Fabrice Soulier 1,079,400
> Martin Jacobson 539,400
> Henrique Pinho 518,100
> Kent Lundmark 374,000
> Hugo Lemaire 369,800
> George Danzer 310,500
> Peter Eastgate 301,500
> Sebastien Ruthenberg 278,800
> Tomer Berda 275,000
> Cornel Cimpan 270,500
> Maksim Kolosov 248,800
> Vladimir Geskenbein 209,700
> Konstantin Puchkov 188,100
> Roberto Romanello 149,500
