Just thirteen players made it through to the second day of The Hendon Mob Championship with Smaling Kuner bagging the largest stack of the day on 270,000. Another player who made it through the day was Bulgarian Ivo Petkov, 5th in chips. He cashed in 31st place in the Rozvadov Main Event and also made a final table in a side event.
Other players who made it through the day include Kenny Burke from the UK, Maltese James Paris and Swedish Gia Carnestrom, who is remarkably the only Scandinavian who made it through the day.
Franke played in this at the same time as he played in the Mixed Games Main Event, but busted in 18th place, narrowly missing making Day 2.
