Three of the five starting days of the 2018 888poker LIVE Festival London £1,100 Main Event have concluded and a field of 365 entries has emerged thus far at the Aspers Casino at Westfield Stratford City hus far. There is little doubt that the guaranteed prize pool of £400,000 will be met, but easily surpassed by quite some margin as another two flights will take place today.

Day 1d will kick off at 1 p.m. local time and feature 12 levels of 40 minutes each with a break every three levels. The final starting day will then get underway at 7 p.m. local time with reduced level times of 20 minutes each. All survivors will combine with the 103 players that already secured their seats for Day 2.

Frenchman Antoine Labat remains the current chip leader with an impressive stack of 300,500, while Thomas Muehloecker topped the 1b counts with 253,000. In the early morning hours, it was Finland's Tuomo Niskanen (275,000) that claimed the honors of 1c chip leader, followed by Fernando Pons (217,000) and Parviz Siabi (230,500).

The tournament features the popular big blind ante structure and a 30-second Action Clock, which gives all players 30 seconds to act. On top of that, everyone receives four 30-second time banks that will go in play automatically. The time banks will be topped up before the start of Day 2 and the final table.
