Catarina Santos out

And we lost Catarina Santos, she was very short the whole day and now...she's gone! She lost KQ vs 77. That means we have only one Live the Dream player left, Leo Truche! He just doubled up and is in good shape again.

The 23 remaining players will play 'till we have the final table. Of course we will be back tomorrow with the live stream so please join in and become a fan of our Spanish Poker Tour Fanpage on Facebook! There you can write your comments. Everest Poker organizes a special token freeroll tomorrow at 19:30 GMT. If you want to know the password, please tune in with our livestream!

Catarina Santos next to Tim van der Zwet.

SPT Valencia Day 2

103 players started day 2 of the SPT Valencia. Like yesterday, we will broadcast the Main Event the whole day. If you like to give us some feedback or if you have information about the players that are playing at the feature table, please leave a message on the Facebook Fanpage. At the moment, the 75 players are playing the 500-1000 level. The total prize pool is over 180,000 EUR and the winner will take home 61,200 EUR.

Bust outs
Cristiano Blanco, our Italian Everest Poker player, is just busted. We also lost Valentin Messina in the early levels of day 2. Sijbrand Maal, the former Belgium Champion from the Netherlands, lost a crucial flip in level 7 and...is out. Another well known Dutch player, mister Haak, decided to go all in with JJ but his opponent was holding AA. Sometimes, poker is a battlefield!

Mister Haak in good shape earlier today.

But of course we have winners too!

Steven van Zadelhoff managed to double up with KQ vs A9. A couple of hands later, he wins with AK vs AQ. He's on the same table as Leo Truche, one of the French Live the Dream players. He has a stack above average, 45k. With blinds 500-1000 there's enough poker going on for him!

International field
We see a lot of familiar faces, but also some new ones like Koiso from Japan! He qualified in Tokyo and is still in the tournament, good luck Koiso!

Players from all around the world!

Poker ladies!
Catarina Santos, our Portuguese Everest Poker player, already won the SPT Aranjuez (she was the first female player to win a SPT)and is now eager to win again! She is an established attorney in Portugal, but Catarina still finds time to dominate the tables online and in live tournaments throughout Europe.

Can she do it again?
