Level 15:  3,000/6,000 with a 6,000 ante
Flight F Players Remaining:  49 of 386

It was an exciting bit of action to get the field to the money bubble when a massive pot went down between Arman Navazi and Daniel Couzens. A lot of chips went into the middle, and Couzens ran into a massive cooler when his kings could not top aces.

Navazi scooped the huge pot and the bubble burst soon after. He put 840,000 into his bag and will return as the overall leader on Day 2. Zak Fellows kept up his fast pace and put 793,000 away for tomorrow.

We will post the seat draw and payout information as soon as it is available.

Level 13:  2,000/4,000 with a 4,000 ante
Flight F Players Remaining:  73 of 386

The last break ended and players returned for the last grind to the money. Only 72 players are remaining with bubble play starting when they hit 50 but we expect things to slow down now.

The stack of Zak Fellows was easy to find; he sits with 661,000 for a huge lead on the rest of the field and that would be good enough for second overall coming back for Day 2 if it ended right now. But he has time to run it higher. Kyle Lang was his closest competitor with 468,000 and a few in the 300K neighborhood.

Flight F is cruising through Level 12 and the likely last break of the day will hit when it’s done. With 80 players remaining and 49 moving forward, they won’t see another one until some time tomorrow afternoon.

Level 9:  1,000/1,500 with a 1,500 ante
Flight F Entries:  386

The second break ended and players returned to the action with no more entries allowed. Now they’ll begin the process of whittling down the field until we have our final field set for Day 2.

There were no massive stacks with everyone a little more cautious today than the other flights. Arman Navazi leads the way with 229,5000 with Tyler McKinney not too far back with 223,500 in second.

Other flights had a last level to register but today it’s the last last level, only 45 minutes left to join this big field with a prize pool over $340,000 and climbing in the closing minutes.

Once the next break ends, we close the doors on the first trophy event of the series and have our final numbers.
