Day 1b of the 2015 PokerStars.com EPT Season 12 Prague €5,300 Main Event attracted 783 players, which along with Day 1a's 254 brings the total field up to 1,037 players. That number may very well go up even more as late registration is open until the start of Day 2, at which time the official numbers and prize pool will be determined.
After eight 75-minute levels of play on Day 1b, approximately 450 players bagged and tagged, but none more than Canada's Sam Chartier, who finished as the chip leader with an impressive 211,500.
