The chip leader of the day is the Swedish David Sonélin holder of 438,900 chips. Raphael Kroll is at the 5th position. Some top players like Ludovic Lacay, Bruno Launais, Bertrand ElkY, Nicolas Ragot, Thomas Bichon, Guillaume de la Gorce the chip leader on Day 1 B, Michael Oestreicher, Vinceny Dallet and Nicolas Bavel are still in good position for the remainder of the meeting.
