It’s the fifth day of the 2026 PartyPoker Tour Manchester, and Day 2 of the £150 Mini Main Event will be the star of today’s show. Day 1f, the final starting-day flight of the tournament, is currently ongoing; the flight has scored 118 entries, meaning that 18 will go through to Day 2 (unless more than one player goes out on the bubble).
In other words, 101 players are destined to take their seats in Day 2. The prize pool has landed on an impressive £83,500; it’s safe to say quick work was made of the £50,000 guarantee. Unless someone in Day 1f bags more than 907,000, Henry Owen will begin the Day 2 as the chip leader.
There are two side events on today’s schedule, alongside two satellites. With the big game going on tonight as well, this is going to be the busiest day of the 2026 PartyPoker Tour Manchester so far.
