European Poker Tour Scandinavian Open Day 1B

The PokerStars.com European Poker Tour Scandinavian Open, being held in Casino Copenhagen in the Danish capital, had a sellout field of 460 players, generating almost €3 million in prize money. Today, 174 return for day 2 and the drive for the first prize of €834,590.

Day 1B saw a number of notable casualties, including recent Premier League winner Andy Black, Tony G, Katja Thater, Tom McEvoy, William Thorsson, Patrick Bueno, and Rob Hollink.
