Nach vielen dürftigen Teilnehmerzahlen bei den letzten Events kann man bei PokerStars aufatmen.
Die „sichere Bank“ Barcelona funktioniert auch dieses Jahr, denn bei der €1.100 PokerStars National Championship meldeten sich bereits an Tag 1A über 1.000 Spieler an.
Da für den heutigen Tag 1B bereits über 1.500 Anmeldungen vorliegen, darf mit einem riesigen Feld gerechnet werden, dass die Preisgeldgarantie von 4 Millionen sicher knacken wird.
Star des Tages war bei diesem eher kleinen Turnier der King of the Swings, Viktor Blom, der allerdings zu den vielen Ausfällen des Tages zählte.
Zudem waren einige ehemalige EPT-Sieger im Feld, wie der Pole Sebastian Malec, Jan Bendik oder Michael Tureniec, die alle den Sprung in Tag 2 schafften.
Auch einige deutschsprachige Spieler sind noch dabei, am besten schnitt Hans Homner ab, der sich unter den ersten 50 platzieren konnte.
