The 2009 PokerStars.com European Poker Tour London Main Event is the biggest tournament ever held in the U.K. Even with a new, surprisingly flat payout structure a massive 104 places will pay out, but the vast field still managed to generate a £850,000 first prize. The show got under way and last night, the 4th October, saw two emerge from the pack.
The two leaders went head to head and Jeff Lisandro gradually built his stack and finished with a massive 236,400, but a late-surging Nikolai Senninger managed to amass 323,100, beating Lisandro and sending him into Day 2 as overall chip leader. Only 318 players from day one will be coming back for Day 2 today as of today and live coverage resumes at 12 noon.
