Vivian Saliba joined Day 1a of the Main Event, which is a bad sign for her run in the €5,300 Super High Roller as that meant she had already been eliminated. Dan Cates, in the meanwhile, entered the biggest buy-in of the series.
Upon sitting down, Saliba took a short video and picture of fellow Brazilian 888poker ambassador Alexandre Mantovani, who can be found on the same table.

888poker Stream Team member Rene Majed completed the line-up of ambassadors on the same table and immediately clashed with Alexandre Mantovani. A potentially even bigger pot was avoided when both checked the 
river. Majed tabled the 
for the flopped top pair and flush draw but Mantovani raked in a pot of more than 14,000 with 
for a pair of aces and busted nut flush draw.
Majed got some of the chips back when he raised it up from under the gun and fired one bet on the 
flop. Simon Paparone called and then check-called another 2,100 on the turn and both checked the on the river. Paparone turned over 
but Majed held the superior pair in 
.

On the tail end of a heads-up pot between Tomasz Brzezinski from under the gun and Max Avela, the latter bet the 
river for 4,000. Brzezinski mulled it over for a few seconds and tossed in a single T-5,000 chip for the call. Avela rolled over the 
for the nut straight and his opponent mucked.
"You know, sometimes I actually do have a hand," the Finn grinned.

Three ways to the flop, the action checked to Rene Majed and he bet 1,200. Kian Khaleghian in the cutoff then raised it up to 6,000 and Vivian Saliba in the big blind folded after some consideration.
Majed, however, stuck around and the turn was checked by both. The fell on the river and Majed bet 14,500 with 11,200 behind. Khaleghian gave it some consideration and was very close to toss in a single chip for the call before changing his mind and folding.

It has been a day to forget for Harcharan Dogra Dogra, who steadily lost chips in the first level. The dealer on his table just announced a seat open and sure enough, it was Dogra Dogra who headed to the rail.
On his former table Yogev Ohayon and Guillem Garriga Gairaud had chipped up while 888poker ambassador Sam Abernathy sat down this very second one table over.
