We are an hour away from the start of Day 2 of the 2017 partypoker LIVE MILLION Germany €2,200 High Roller at 12 p.m. local time featuring a huge €200,000 guaranteed prize pool at King's Casino Rozvadov. A total of 65 entrants took part in yesterday's opening day with 48 advancing to today's final day. The field is expected to continue to grow during the beginning part of Day 2 with late registration and unlimited re-entries available until Level 11 begins or more than two hours into the day.

Other notables to advance includes EPT Grand Final winner Jan Bendik (267,100) and WSOP bracelet holder Paul Michaelis (195,000), while Germany's Phillip Gruissem (111,500) made it through despite having a tough day at the felt.
Blinds begin today at 1,000/2,000 with an ante of 300 with blind levels increasing every 45 minutes. Players entering at the start of today will therefore still be deep stacks with their 100,000 in opening chips equating to 50 big blinds.
