Party Poker Grand Prix – 67 Players Through to Day 3

The marathon of Party Poker €1m GTD Grand Prix Malta day 1s is now over and so is day 2, which took place just after the conclusion of the final starting flight, on Sunday 1st October. Of the 336 players who began the second day of the tournament, 67 have made it to the third and penultimate day of the prestigious event, at Portomaso Casino in St Julians, Malta. They have each now locked up a minimum prize of €1,600, but all would much prefer to be in the winner’s enclosure come Tuesday, as there’s a very tasty €144,100 waiting for the winner.
