PokerStars Baltic Poker Festival in Tallinn, is a very popular event that most of the PokerStars PRO's usually takes part in together with lots of PokerStars qualifiers. This year was no different.
Day 1a and b have now been played, and 307 players made it till Day 2. Out of these 307 players, 120 are still in the tournament. In the chip lead we find Bo Kjaer Erichsen from Denmark with 76,600 chips. On second and third place are Ermo Kosk and Aleksandr Lozikin. Both of them are from Estonia and also have equal stacks of around 70,000 chips.
2 of the most notable players in the remaining field are JC Alvardo and Peter Eastgate (PokerStars PRO's). Even though both of them are running good at the moment, they still have a long way to go and many really good players to face.

Wow only top 9 get paid and top prize is 76G's? Must be a pretty small tourney in that case, doesnt compare to any of the majors by the looks of things

There's a huge difference between a $1k buy in and a $10k. Had this event been a $10,000 buy in, first place would be taking home $767k

10% field is not good enough. Minimum for a large MTT should be 20%-25%.
About Eastgate, he may be learning that being on a coin flip is not a guaranteed double up like he uses to think. Sometimes luck goes away.
