The start of Day 1B is soon underway and a much fuller floor has presented itself on this splendid day in Malta.  There’s around twice as many players who registered for the second starting day compared to Day 1A.
Familiar faces have made their way into the grandmaster hall at the Portomaso complex. Amongst our local players, so far we’ve seen Andrew Cutajar, who won his seat through a satellite tournament held earlier this week.  Players are now getting ready for the 10 levels they are expected to complete till the end of the their starting day.

Only seven days are left for the start of the Malta Poker Dream 2011.  We are now at the second edition of the event that once again is taking place at the Portomaso Casino in St. Julians, Malta.  Over 300 players have already confirmed their attendance to the event and have registered through the Malta Poker Dream site, with day 1B almost at full capacity of 250 players allowed for each starting day.
