That stack is even more impressive when you consider that, one of 54 starters on Day 1A of this €700+€70 tournament, he began with 15,000 chips. When he returns on Sunday for Day 2, blinds will be 500-1,000 (100 ante), which means he has a bit more than 204 big blinds. In total he has more than 25% of the 810,000 chips in play today, and his closest challenger, Eduardo Ferreira, has 83,700 chips!
Day 1A saw the demise of two Portuguese Team PokerStars Pros. Henrique Pinho lost his last chips in the end of the penultimate level of the day, just a little bit after Nuno Coelho had pocket kings... twice! First he lost half of his stack pre-flop against A-K, then he found himself on the wrong side of a K-K vs. A-A cooler.
Satursay saw another Team PokerStars Pro in play. João Nunes plays, but after a special heads-up challenge against Paulo Futre, one of the best Portuguese footballers ever, whose popularity levels in Portugal are, nowadays, higher than ever.
