Ignat Leads JP Masters into Day 2

Ignat Leads JP Masters into Day 2

Marius Ignat – doing very well indeed

The JP Masters is calling it a night with 28 players remaining of 347 entries – well up on last year’s field of 302. Our glorious chip leader is Marius Ignat; when he returns for Day 2 tomorrow at noon though he’ll have to battle his way through a tough field including 2022 Americas Cup winner Mor Kamber, EPT High Roller finalist Paul Leckey, and professional chip manipulator Will Kassouf.

We’ll be back bringing you as much coverage tomorrow as two humans can on a day when we’re looking at multiple championship events finishing simultaneously. If you’re still hungry for more Irish Open action tonight, we’ll be continuing our coverage on the €3k High Roller and the PLO 6-Max until they bag up in an hour or two – you can navigate your way to that in the drop down menu above. From Day 1 of the JP Masters though – you’ll probably find most of this lot in the bar…
