The WPT Amnéville Day 1 was marked by the ruling of French players. Indeed of the 176 players present at the beginning of the first day (Day 1A), it was Nicolas Babel who emerged ahead of the 114 survivors of the day after eight levels of play of one hour on Day 1B, Jean-François Rigollet takes the head of the chip count on the 203 participants of the day. Only 105 players had their tickets for Day 2 so, they can join the 114 survivors of Day 1A to reduce the number of the remaining players to 219 players. These players gave appointment at Seven Casino at noon on Thursday, November 3 to compete for the 36 paid places but also the title of this tournament.
