Welcome to Day 1b of the 2016 Winamax SISMIX Main Event
The second of three starting days of the 2016 Winamax SIXMIX Main Event at the Casino de Marrakech in sunny Morocco is scheduled to get underway in less than 30 minutes at 12:00 local time. In yesterday's first flight, 178 players joined the field with 38 survivors making it through to Day 2.
Belgium's Cheng-Wei Yin dominated the action late in the day against the mostly French field and ended the day with 307,500. Yin was clearly ahead of the field since the dinner break and never let up with his stack bouncing between 260,000 and 370,000 chips most of the time.
Many Winamax Team members were in attendance for Day 1a with many more expected today. Florian Decamps led the way among the sponsored players heading into Day 2 with 95,500 chips which was near the end of the day average.
It is expected that more players will enter in the second opening flight when compared to yesterday which should include many new players along with a many players we saw yesterday but were unable to make it to Day 2 including Winamax Team member Davidi Kitai who expressed he would be back.
Players once again will begin the day with 20,000 chips with blind levels increasing every 45 minutes providing plenty of play. Yesterday the average stack was over 50 big blinds almost the entire day with day ending with the average just dipping below this figure.
Also on today's schedule is the 1,600 MAD (�147) Total Bounty at 5:00 p.m., the 600 MAD (�55) Hit & Run SISMIX Main Event at 8:00 p.m., and the 1,500 MAD (�138) Iron Man Tournament at 9:00 p.m.
