Late registration will remain open until the start of Level 11 and play will end when 15% of the field remains at which point all remaining players will advance to Day 2 and be guaranteed at least a min-cash.

On a board of K♣3♣4♠Q♣ there were around 3,000 chips in the pot when both Vitalii Zimkovskyi and Oleksii Tkachenko checked it over to Mateusz Kubik, who bet 1,000. Only Zimkovskyi called.
A 2♦ fell on the river and Zimkovskyi decided to lead out with a small bet of 800, which Kubik called.
Their bets were returned right back where they came from as Zimkovskyi flipped K♠5♠ and Kubik showed K♦5♦ for the same hand, which resulted in a chopped pot.
