Ladies first... Veronika heads the Day 2 field

Veronika Kokočeva won over €29,300 in 2011 tournaments

After Marga Gonzalez showed her flash of girl power in Barcelona, the rise of the female player continues on the ParadisePoker Tour as Veronika Kokočeva commands the biggest stack in the room.

Heading into Day 2, the Czech lady is just a few chips ahead of Matthias Weigert and Vítězslav Meišner, with the trio into six-figures after a fine first day.

Of our most popular Fantasy Poker picks, Luis Machado (77,700), Mikkel Bergmann (73,900), Grzegorz Cichocki (73,325) and Joao Brito (72,100) stick out.

Speaking of Fantasy Poker, our Barcelona winner David Miko has 68,150 - more than 25,000 chips ahead of the average - and is on course to turn his PPT fantasy into reality! We'll have a more comprehensive round-up of Fantasy Poker soon.
