Sitting near the top of the leaderboard at the start of Day 2 of the "5K 6-max", Mustapha Kanit is already gunning for the bubble.

How do you say "show of strength" in Italian? Just ask Mustapha Kanit! In front of the Inside the Mind of a Pro cameras, that's exactly what our Transalpine pro player did throughout the first day of the World Series of Poker's $5,000 6-max tournament. A mixture of good runs, favourable encounters and excellent decisions, which enabled our favourite moustachioe'd player to enter Day 2 with the equivalent of 125 blinds, in twelfth place on the leaderboard out of 381 players.

But beware: as Team Winamax coach Stéphane Matheu suggests during the drive leading to the Horseshoe, one day's reality is not necessarily the next day's reality. And the jovial Italian is about to learn that the hard way, at a table where he will once again be clashing with Santhosh Suvarna, the jovial high-stakes regular.
