Day 1 Complete

We have reached the end of play here in Day 1 of Event #44. Today saw a field of 879 players buy in, and by the time the rebuy period ended, there were an additional 2,508 buy-ins added to the pool. This action generated a prize pool in excess of $3.2 millon, which means that the victor on Friday will walk away with just under $700,000.

The play was wide open during the rebuy period, with some players going to their wallets 10 or 15 times in the first two hours. After the break, some players couldn't quite switch out of rebuy mode, and there was still a plentiful supply of loose play. Things tightened down as the night wore on though, as the players battled to make it to the second round tomorrow.

Our presumed overnight chip leader is Curtis Kohlberg with 158,700 chips. There are a few players hot on his heels though, including Simon Ravnsbaek and Dan Lu.

When play concluded, there were just 116 of our original runners left. They will come back tomorrow at 2:00pm PDT to fight for a spot at the final table. We thank you for joining us today and hope you'll be back with us tomorrow!
