🇨🇭Rainer Bertsch steals the show on Day1 B!

Entries 93/Left 13

Day 1B of The Warriors Main Event has just concluded here at the GC Poker Room in Bern, Liechtenstein, with 93 entries adding 13 more qualifiers to Sunday’s Day 2.

The day's best performance came from Swiss player Reiner Bertsch, who bagged 598,000 chips, earning him the chip leader bonus of 5,000 francs. Here’s what he told us at the end of the day:

“It was a great day; everything went smoothly, especially towards the end, as I wasn’t involved in big pots or had to risk many chips early on.

Towards the end, I tried to play for the bonus and had to make a fairly complex hero call, along with getting lucky in one hand where I hit a flush.

It’s my first time finishing as a chip leader on Day 1 with a chip leader bonus, and I’m very happy about it. Hopefully, I’ll do well on Day 2 as well.”

Top 5

As for the Top 5, in addition to Reiner Bertsch with 598,000, we have Leon 17 with 580,000 (which is awarded a CHF 3,000) and Bruno Crema with 564,000, who scoops the third bonus for CHF 2,000.

The Top 5 is completed by Daniel J. Feurle with 475,000 and Frankie Fenomeno with 268,000. Below, you can find the full chip count of all 13 qualifiers from Day 1B, who will return for Day 2 on Sunday.
