Season six of the Eureka Poker Tour kicked off today on the King's Casino in Rozvadov. A COMPLETE of 219 players post €1,100 to play some poker and when the 10 levels were over 90 players had made it through to Day 2.

Daniel Karacic, chipped up within the Czech Republic

Topping the lot of them is Daniel Karacic. The Croat bagged up 194,400 and is not any stranger to success on this casino. In September 2010 he scored his biggest career score so far when he collected €15,000 for winning a €330 tournament.

He leads a chasing pack that contains: Harald Casagrande (155,000), Lazer Gjergji (151,800), Gaspare Leggio (147,700), Arturs Scerbaks (138,700), Jens Steuber (126,100) and Ivan Luca (124,800).

Luca went on a late run

The Argentinian high roller finished third within the €5,000 event that concluded here yesterday and showed up halfway throughout the day. He'd soon done half his stack, but a late night comeback, including a timely queens versus jacks coup, sees him in great shape for Day 2

Eiler enjoyed a fair day

There were EPT, UKIPT, Eureka or even Who Desires to be a Millionaire champions within the field today and Michael Eiler - who won EPT7 Vienna - had a super day on the felt. He was always well placed and the 117,900 he bagged up means he'll be hopeful of a deep run.

Of course for some stacks to grow others must disappear. For the likes of Alex Kravchenko, Marius Pospiech, Jan-Peter Jachtmann, Josef Snejberg, Raphael Wimmer, Makarios Avramidis, Tom Holke and Daniel Stacey it was an afternoon to forget. They don't seem to be completely out of contention yet though as they'll have the ability to enter Day 1C, a turbo Day 1 that starts at 10pm tomorrow and has 20 minute levels.

We'll be back before then though as Day 1B kicks off at 1pm CET. We'll see then you but you'll be able to compensate for today's coverage by clicking here. Whilst overnight chip counts can be found here.

There's a large tournament going down in South America too. Follow live updates from LAPT Chile here.

But until tomorrow, goodnight.
