Day Two begins with a chip count

All is quiet in the Casino Vilamoura. Not a ruffle of chips nor the murmur of trash talk to be heard as we await our final 36 players.

The race for the money starts at 1pm, with late registration looking like paying off for chip leader Behzad Zarnegar.

Also in a commanding position is Łukasz Gębica, known to the PPT blog from his aggressive play and deep run in Bulgaria. The luck turned against him back in July, but can the Pole put his 131,600 chips to better use this time around?

ParadisePoker pro and local favourites Carlos Oliveira and Paulo Nunes both live on, though the latter's situation only worsened in the final hour's play last night.

Oliveira however is running hot, having scooped a quarter million top prize within the last week, so will be confident of making a continued impression with his above average stack.

Unfortunately fellow sponsored player Johnny Jensen ran into trouble late yesterday, following his mum out of the tournament, but can look forward to a scene of greater success when the PPT moves on to London in November.
