Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 500 ante
A field of 67 entries Sunday has added $64,655 to the $35,705 gathered from the 37 entries of Day 1a.
Through those two opening flights, the prizepool now sits at $100,360, putting it well on the way to eclipsing the $150,000 guarantee for the event.
From Sunday's field of 67, the final nine players will make the money and advance to Day 2 on Tuesday, joining the five that advanced from Day 1a.
As play resumes for Level 9, 30 players remain in the field as the sprint to that final nine and the money is now underway.

Level 8
: Blinds 500/1,000, 500 ante
Christopher Chomenko raised to 3,000 in early position and got a call before Thai Ha potted it from the button. Chomenko re-potted it, the caller folded and Ha moved in with Chomenko calling for about 130,000 to put himself at risk in a massive pot.
Christopher Chomenko: K♦K♥9♥9♦
Thai Ha: A♥A♣K♣8♠
Ha had Chomenko crushed, plus he had one of his outs with the K♣. On top of that, ha got as perfect a flop as he could ask for, coming A♠4♣2♣ for trip aces and the nut flush draw.
The 10♣ turn brought in the flush, and the Q♣ came on the river for good measure as Ha took down the massive pot as he looks for a second title this week after winning the Monster Stack event on Friday.
Level 8
: Blinds 500/1,000, 500 ante
With 62 entries now in Day 1b, the total number for the first two flights of the Winter Poker Open PLO Championship has now hit 99 total.
Registration remains open through Level 8 and the ensuing break leading to Level 9 where registration and re-entry will then be closed.
Among the new players spotted in the field are highly accomplished local pro Ray Henson, and Jason Fitzpatrick, who is looking to improve on his disappointing bubble finish in Saturday's opening flight.

Level 7
: Blinds 400/800, 400 ante
Picking action up on the flop with about 11,000 in the middle and a board of 10♦8♥4♥, Thomas Shipp checked in the big blind, as did Sung Keen in early position, and William Leffingwell in middle position, leading to a bet of 11,000 from Brad Ruben on the button.
Shipp called and Keen then moved all in for about 25,000. Leffingwell folded, but Ruben moved in for about 36,000 and Shipp was then in for less.
Thomas Shipp: 10♥10♠7♥6♣
Sung Keen: A♥5♣4♣3♥
Brad Ruben: Q♣J♠9♣6♥
Shipp was ahead with trip tens versus Keen's nut flush draw and Ruben's wrap.
The turn brought the 4♠, giving Keen trip fours to go with his flush draw, but also a full house for Ship, Keen drawing to the last four, while Ruben was drawing dead.
The river was the A♠, as Shipp's house held to earn him a sizeable pot, while leaving Ruben and Keen short.
Ruben would bust and rebuy shortly after, bringing a fresh 40,000 to a new table with just one level of registration left in the night.
Level 7
: Blinds 400/800, 400 ante
The players at Table 7 just alerted the PokerNews live reporting team to a massive hand that saw Chip Ervin double through Alejandro Armas in dramatic fashion.
As told by the players, on a flop of A♠A♣J♠, Ervin got his last 23,000 in from the blinds against Armas in late position. The hand was already a cooler, but it would get much wilder.
Chip Ervin: A♥9♣8♠2♠
Alejandro Armas: J♠J♥9♥3♥
Ervin had flopped trip aces, but Armas held jacks full of aces. Ervin would have to make a better full house of quads if he was to take away the pot.
The J♦ came on the turn, giving Armas the quads instead, leaving Ervin now drawing to the A♦ to avoid elimination.
The dealer incredibly obliged, placing that A♦ on the river to keep Ervin in the game in incredible fashion.
