EVENT UPDATE

Tuesday, October 18, 2016 2:32 AM Local Time
Less than 40 Advance Through Day 1

As anticipated, today's Monster Stack event was well attended, with 619 players putting up the $365 buy-in. The clock has nearly run out on Level 21, and Day 1 is coming to a close as the last few hands are played out at each table. Just 39 players remain, and those who are bagging up chips will return tomorrow to play down to a winner.

Yousri Ali ended the day with the chip lead, the only player to approach seven figures in chips so far. His stack of 968,000 will set the pace when play resumes. Others who survived the day include DJ MacKinnon (431,000), Haley Hintze (248,000), Joe Kuether (208,000), and Event #1 runner-up Art Harb (153,000).

The complete list of chip counts and the Day 2 seat draw are available in the "Reports" tab.

Everyone left is guaranteed to earn at least $724. Blinds will be 6,000/12,000 with a 2,000 ante to begin Day 2, and the cards go in the air at 2:00 PM -- just less than 12 hours from now.
