It all got in pre-flop in a huge three handed pot where "Braver16" had their kings cracked by the ace-jack of Pascal "Päffchen" Hartmann as he was eliminating "RaymondRed27" as well. Hartmann hit a jack on the flop, then tripped up on the river to stay alive.

Dorian "harddecision" Rios raised the hijack to 30K, and "Vivaoo" called from the button before "joooonteeee" raised the small blind to 90K. Both players called to the {7-Clubs}{6-Spades}{5-Diamonds} and they checked through the {4-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} turn and river. When it checked to "Vivaoo" on the river, they bet 150,937 and only Rios called. "Vivaoo" had pocket threes for the turned straight, and won it when Rios mucked.

Action is complete on Day 1 of EPT Online 14: $215 NLHE [EPT Online Cup], and UK player "Harn1" is leading the way into Day 2 as the only player with more than 4 million chips. A total of 2,833 entries brought the prize pool to $566,600, besting the guarantee by more than 10%, but by the time they'd played the 7 hours and 45 minutes on Day 1, just 130 players were left in action.

Action on Day 1 got underway at 1:05 p.m. eastern, and after almost 4 hours of late registration, a total of 2,833 entries broke the $500K guarantee by more than $66,000. That meant 413 players would share in the prizes.

It only took about 2 more hours to play into the money, and once the bubble burst, things moved even faster. By the time they finished the first day of play another 2 hours later, there were just 130 players left in the game.

Everyone coming back for Day 2 is guaranteed at least $716, but they are all eyeing the more than $82K up top for the win. Join PokerNews tomorrow, starting at 1:05 p.m. eastern, as they play down to a winner, and find out who turns $215 into more than $82K.
