All three flights for the \u20ac3,300 partypoker LIVE MILLIONS Europe Main Event<\/strong> are complete and there is a familiar name at the top of the overall chip counts going into Day 2 on June 11. Ramon Colillas<\/strong>, winner of the \u20ac1,100 MILLIONS Europe Open<\/strong><\/a> a few days ago, continued in his rich vein of form and bagged up 18,245,000 chips on Day 1C, enough to lead overall.<\/p>\n

Colillas rode his luck on his way to the top of the chip counts. His ace-queen sucked out on the dominating ace-king shortly after the scheduled dinner break, and he never looked back. Colillas, who has more than $6 million in live poker tournament earnings, is the one to watch on Day 2 and, possibly, beyond.<\/p>\n

Four other Day 1C players turned their one million starting chips into an eight-figure stack. Re Gabrielle<\/strong> (12,230,000), Alex Lynskey<\/strong> (11,685,000), Mitchell Hynam<\/strong> (11,280,000), and Emmanuel Rouvet<\/strong> (10,650,000) were that quartet. Of those four players, Alex Lynskey is the most accomplished. The talented Australian has a shade under $4 million in live cashes and millions more from the online grind.<\/p>\n

Also through to Day 2 and guaranteed at least a min-cash of \u20ac5,000, are the likes of Moene Jelle<\/strong> (8,675,000), Arthur Conan<\/strong> (6,945,000), and Yucel “Mad Turk” Eminoglu<\/strong> (1,875,000).<\/p>\n

While the players mentioned above celebrated progressing deeper in the MILLIONS Europe Main Event, Day 1C proved to be the end of the road for a whole host of household names. Team partypoker’s John Duthie and Carl Froch busted during the final flight, as did the Irish Open Main Event<\/a> runner-up Kyle Maguire<\/strong>, and MILLIONS Europe High Roller champion Teun Mulder<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

The 22 surviving Day 1C players join the 29 stars who made it through from Days 1A<\/a> and 1B<\/a> on June 11. Tune into the partypoker blog tomorrow to discover which players navigated their way to Day 3 of the MILLIONS Europe Main Event.<\/p>\n
