The partypoker Caribbean Party Poker series is now running strong. It began on November 9 and will wrap up on November 17 at Baha Mar in the Bahamas, which, if you’re going to play poker, is the perfect backdrop. There are now two events underway and the turnout has exceeded all expectations.

The $25,500 MILLIONS World tournament has entered Day 2, having recorded 382 entries. As of this writing, there are 174 players left, all looking for a piece of the $5-million prize pool. The tournament has attracted several well-known players, such as Keith Lehr, Kathy Lehne, Sam Greenwood and Isaac Haxton. They’re all still hanging in there, as are Patrick Antonius, Rainer Kempe and Seth Davies.

A few high-stakes regulars haven’t been so lucky. Feder Holz, Martin Jacobson and Anton Morgenstern are already spending more time on the white sandy beaches than at the felt, having busted early in the tournament.

Currently leading the pack is Venezuela’s Giuseppe Iadisernia. He has just under 6 million chips and is followed by Brazil’s Geraldo Cesar with 5.6 million. Keith Lehr rounds out the top three with 5.525 million.
