Day 1b of the GGSF Super MILLION$ ME-H Sees 20 Players Advance
The second starting flight of the GGSF Super MILLION$ ME-H: $10,300, $10M GTD is in the books after after almost nine hours of play. Day 1b attracted 158 total entries (118 player & 40 re-entries) during Tuesday's action, bringing the total to 487 total entries through the first two starting flights.
Much like Day 1a, the final level of the night saw an onslaught of casualties, with players such as Matthias Eibinger, Mikita Badziakouski and Pavlo Kolinkovskiy among those to be eliminated before play concluded for the night with chips flying all across the three remaining tables in the final level of play that led to a lot of players riding roller coasters with their stack sizes before becoming official for the evening.
At the end of the final level, only 20 players remained and Konstantin Maslak found himself atop the counts with a stack of 1,690,980. Maslak got on a late heater to climb atop the counts while Preben Stokkan (1,365,291), and Darren Elias (1,346,646) ended the night hot on his tail.
