Level 25: 3,000/6,000
"0Mar.Si" opened to 12,000 and "latvianhero1" defended in the big blind.
Action checked to "0Mar.Si" on the 9♠7♠5♠ flop and they continued for 10,890. "latvianhero1" responded with a raise to 27,780 and then made the call with the covering stack after "0Mar.Si" moved all in for 106,267.
"0Mar.Si": A♣A♠
"latvianhero1": 9♣8♦
"0Mar.Si" was in excellent position to score the full double with the overpair and nut flush draw. The Q♠ turn immediately secured the pot for the at risk player with the inconsequential K♠ river completing a monotone board.

Level 22: 1,750/3,500
"oowmygodness" opened to 7,000 from middle position and "YguTj" committed their last 168 to the pot on the button. Both "aanatt" in the small blind and "guitiradent1" in the big blind called to leave "YguTj" on the brink.
Action checked through the 9♠Q♦10♣ flop to the 2♥ turn at which point "aanatt" checked for a second time. "guitiradent1" fired off 6,142 and was called by "oowmygodness". "aanatt" responded by moving all in for 21,251, forcing "guitiradent1" out of the hand. "oowmygodness", meanwhile, made the call to put both of their opponents at risk.
"YguTj": A♣J♥
"aanatt": A♠A♥
"oowmygodness": J♦J♠
"aanatt" was ahead with the overpair but both "YguTj" and "oowmygodness" had straight draws. The river bricked out 6♣, however, to send "YguTj" out on the stone bubble while handing a healthy pot to "aanatt".

Level 20: 1,250/2,500
"ingeruRO14" opened to 5,250 from under the gun and was called by "Peter_Martin" in the cutoff. The remaining players got out of the way to send action heads up to the flop.
"ingeruRO14" continued for 4,328 on the Q♥3♥4♣ flop and was called.
The 10♣ turn saw "ingeruRO14" continue their aggression with a bet of 18,918. Again, "Peter_Martin" called.
"ingeruRO14" applied maximum pressure on the board pairing Q♣ river by moving all in. "Peter_Martin", the effective stack, had less than pot behind and quickly called holding J♦J♣. It was no good, however, as "ingeruRO14" held 7♣6♣ for the runner-runner flush to secure the pot and knockout, which came with a minimum bounty.

Action has only just gotten underway but the top $20,000 bounty is already off the board. "zxcdsaqwe" of Albania is the fortunate individual to claim that prize.
While they have their work going forward cut out for them with a below average stack of 48,000, they have already seen a greater return on their investment than any other player in the tournament is likely to.
With all Day 1 flights now concluded, the prize pool and payouts have been confirmed. A total of 1,328 players hopped into the fray, matching the lofty $200,000 guarantee.
The $100,000 regular prize pool will be split amongst the top 144 players, each of whom is guaranteed $250, with $15,480 set aside for the winner.
The remaining $100,000 Mystery Bounty pool will see one lucky individual walk away with at least $20,000, while each player is certain to receive a minimum of $146 for each knockout.
