Adrian's day of glory
Day1B of IPS 50th Edition has come to an end after an intense battle lasting over the 16 levels scheduled for today.
Among the 81 entries, only 10 stood the test of time and booked a seat to Day 2, which will be running Sunday the 5th starting from 4.30 p.m. CET.
A chat with the champ
In the midst of the action we've got the chance to exchange a few words with former champion Rachid El Yacoubi, who took down IPS Main Event Speed back in 2021, overcoming a field of 2.815 players:
"I'm going to play as many bullets as it needs to build up a large stack, that's my strategy with these types of tournaments" - says the French player - "I'll be staying for the whole festival in any case, the atmosphere is great here, as always."
Running good, my friend
If appetite comes with eating we bet Adrian Govea Quevedo is gonna be among the hungriest next Sunday, as bagging 830.000 chips on Day 1 means being in the best spot to get a slice of the final day's cake.
The Spaniard has not yet achieved any five-figure score, will this be his moment?
