Now that's what I call a quick turnaround. Crown a Main Event champion, fly half-way across the world the next day, sit in your seat, welcome to the next WPT tour stop, welcome to Amnéville, France.
WPT Amnéville started on Tuesday and Day 1 concluded today with it's second flight of players. In total, 379 runners registered for the event, 218 of them are lucky enough to return tomorrow for Day 2 play.
There are not a ton of big names at the event so there is a great opportunity to pickup a big win! One of the big names at WPT Amnéville is former EPT San Remo Champ Liv Boeree. Boeree (pictured) survived Day 1 but, she is going to have to do some work on Day 2, Boeree has a little over 36K in chips ... about 130K less than overall chip leader Jean Francois Rigollet.
Joseph Cheong continues to show up on tournament leaderboards. The 2010 November Niner will start Day 2 with a very healthy chip stack, about 40K in chip behind Rigollet).
