Day 2 Online edit

To complete the event, PokerStars decided to play DAY 2 online, with the 89 players still in play at LAPT Mexico, on the PokerStars platform until the final table was formed. When the final table was formed, it was stopped again for the 9 players to meet live again, but now during the LAPT Punta Del Este which took place in March 2009.
