The massive 2020 Caribbean Poker Party Main Event hit its $5 million guarantee on November 22 when 547 players bought into Day 1B and took the total attendance to 1,037.

Only 151 of that combined total are through to Day 2 on November 23 and one of them is going to see their partypoker account swell by almost $880,000 by the time the champion is crowned.

Peru’s Diego Ventura is the man in pole position right now thanks to bagging up 18,748,998 chips on Day 1B. He returns to the tables slightly ahead of UK-based Australian Michael Addamo who topped the Day 1A counts last week.

Ventura is a phenomenal poker tournament player, one who has almost $1.3 million in live poker tournament winnings and another $4.9 million from grinding online. It’s going to be a tough to knock him off his perch now he has a big stack in front of him.

Argentina’s Ramiro Petrone is another Day 1B players who enjoyed their time at the virtual felt. Petrone finished the second and final flight with 15,372,114 chips which are enough for fifth-place when play resumes at 19:05 GMT on November 23. Petrone finished third in the $1,050 The Warm- Up while playing in this tournament. That third-place finish weighed in at $45,488 with bounties included.

Plenty of other superstars were among the 86 Day 1B players who punched their tickets for the next stage.

Anton Wigg (14,536,280) has done his chances of glory no harm at all, neither has Team partypoker’s Anatoly Filatov (12,991,576), of Kahle Burns (10,732,793).

Recent Caribbean Poker Party champion Gavin Cochrane (9,088,435), Team partypoker’s Joni Jouhkimainen (6,173,799), Super High Roller champion Pascal Lefrancois (5,959,820), and our very own Ludovic Geilich (3,431,076) are also through.

Mini Main Event to Pay its Champion $123,718

Day 1B of the Mini Main Event attracted 797 players which means a total attendance of 1,487 and a prize pool of $743,500, $243,500 more than the advertised guarantee! A pair of Brazilian stars topped the Day 1B chip counts and the same duo lead the final 232 players in this tournament.

Tauan Naves bagged up 22,653,140 chips at the close of play on Day 1B while Alisson Piekazewicz finished with 20,926,750. These are the only two players to sit down on Day 2 with more than 20 million chips, although Day 1A chip leader Daniel McAulay’s 19,942,197 stack comes close.

Day 1B saw dozens of the world’s most recognisable names join the action. Three-time WSOP bracelet winner Davidi Kitai (19,942,197) made it through with a top-three stack. WPTWOC champion Daniel Smyth (16,816,934) is also on course for yet another big score a partypoker.

Schwippert Banks $100K in The Warm Up

Jan-Eric Schwippert came out on top of a star studded field in the $1,050 The Warm Up PKO event and walked away with more than $100,000.

Day 2 saw 103 players return to their seats and 88 of those won prize money from the main prize pool. These included Team partypoker’s Ludovic Geilich, Bryan Paris, Scott Margereson, Team partypoker’s Anatoly Filatov and Roberto Romanello, the latter falling in 15th place.

Each of the nine finalists were guaranteed more than $9,000 when their bounty payments were added. This increased to almost $30,000 for the top four finishers.

Mexico-based American Kenneth Smaron finished fourth for $29,653 in total before Ramiro Petrone bowed out in third for $45,488. This left Schwippert and Chris Moorman as the last players standing and the former got the job done.

Moorman walked away with a runner-up finish and $55,171 to show for his efforts. Schwippert became a CPP champion and padded his bankroll with $100,242.
