12:10pm: Better luck for Renata Teixeira
Level 1 - Blinds 50/100
While it wasn't entirely reported yesterday, Renata Teixeira had a rough Day 1A session. The Season 8 LAPT Chile runner up was crippled after a blind versus blind encounter, where her opponent held 8-deuce off-suit to her pocket threes, and from that point treaded water until she was sent to the rail.
Early in this Day 1A session, Teixeira is back in the action, looking to run better than yesterday. She'll have to wait though, as her table is only three-handed and waiting for a fourth to get the cards in the air. We'll certainly follow the Brazilian's action throughout this Day 1B flight and we imagine we'll see the player that bested her last year, Oscar Alache, later today as well. -- WOC
12:05pm: Ortiz is back for more
Level 1 - Blinds 50/100
Two-time LAPT champ Fabian Ortiz is back in the mix today on Day 1B. He'll be looking for a better run than he had yesterday - a day which saw him, Mario Lopez, and Oscar Alache (AKA all of the two-time winners here in Chile) bust before the end of the day.
The Argentine is looking as sharp as ever, so we hope things run smoothly for him today. --JS
12pm: Cards are in the air
Level 1 - Blinds 50/100
Play has kicked off here at Day 1B - the room's not quite full yet but we already see plenty of familiar faces that played yesterday. Stay tuned. --JS
11:40am: Day 1B all set to launch
After an action packed Day 1A session, the PokerStars blog is back for what should be another exciting starting flight. Day 1B of the LAPT9 Chile $1,500 Main Event will likely crush yesterday's number of 258 players, creating a massive starting flight that is sure to be filled with big name players from across Latin America.
Again, just as a reminder to player and fans alike, Vina del Mar is our host this weekend and after a LAPT player party last night and 24 hours in Chile, we may never leave. Luckily, we have work for the next few days to keep us busy and over the next 12 hours, we'll bring you all the updates from this second and final LAPT9 Chile starting flight.
Those updates will start when cards get in the air at 12 PM, so stay tuned for all the LAPT9 Chile action...
