The first 15-minute break has just begun. The field has grown to 108 entrants, including Norway's Borge Sandsgaard who just used his one re-entry for the delay. If Sandsgaard is eliminated again before the end of the day, he will need to wait until Day 1f or Day 1g before re-entering as the tournament only allows for one re-entry per day.
Natalia Breviglieri Wins the partypoker LIVE MILLIONS Germany Charity Event
Partypoker Ambassador Natalia Breviglieri is on top of the world after she just shipped the partypoker LIVE Millions Charity Event. Partypoker decided to generously double the amount donated to charity to €10,000.
So incredibly happy to have just won €10,000 in the @partypokerlive Charity Event for @LindseyLodge #♦
— Natalia Breviglieri♦ (@N4talB)
Breviglieri shared with PokerNews, she feels more emotional as compared to other poker success and will need to wait a little while before hopping into the Day 1e field. She explained that winning money for charity feels much nicer than winning money for yourself. She also shared she can't wait to get home to donate a fat check of €10,000 to a local charity that is near and dear to her heart, the Lindsey Lodge Hospice.
It didn't appear that Breviglieri would get anywhere near a victory early on the in event. She first chopped a pot after getting it all in on a jack-high flop holding king-jack against fellow partypoker Ambassador Jan-Peter Jachtmann after the board pair and an ace appeared on the river.
Then when play was five-handed, she was down to a little more than three big blinds after she three-bet jammed all-in with pocket queens and was unable to hold against German ex-footballer Stefan Effenberg's king-jack after he called.
After that lady luck was on Breviglieri's side.
"I got a bit lucky after that," Breviglieri shared. "I shoved pocket fives and was called by pocket nines. The board ran four cards to my flush and after that, I didn't look back as I have plenty of short-stack experience."
Norway's Borge Sandsgaard is among the early eliminations. He made a huge three-bet preflop holding ace-queen and was called by Czech Republic's Jan Bandura who was holding a pair of threes.
The duo wound up getting it all in with Sandsgaard flopping top pair and Bandura flopping a set of threes after both a queen and three appeared on the flop. Sandsgaard was unable to catch his two runners he needed on the flop and turn and at least for now left the tournament area.
We may see Sandsgaard back in action as all players are allowed to re-enter once per day up until Level 10.
The Day 1e field has grown to 102 players. Three more players that were eliminated from the High Roller were noticed in the field including Norway's Borget Sandsgaard, Czech Republic's Jan Mach and Germany's Han Kuo Yong.
Other notable players in the field include Greece's Pavlos Xanthopoulos, who won a 2015 WSOP Europe side event and France's Nicolas Le Floch, who recently won two WPT side events in February 2017 at the Playground Poker Club in Montreal.
Midway through Level 2 we have a new Day 1e chip leader in Netherlands' Sonay Kehya with 240,000 in chips.
His biggest hand came against Manish Goenka. The hand went four-way to the flop which came . Kehya bet 8,500 and got a call from Goenka with everyone else getting out of the way.
Kehya check-called a bet of 16,000 from Kehna after the appeared on turn. The completed the board. Goenka bet 25,000 before Kehna shoved his stack. He shared after the hand he held king-jack and put his opponent on a missed draw.
He was likely correct after Goenka folded leaving him with slightly more than 30,000. He was unable to hold onto these chips as well and was the first elimination in the Day 1e field.
With the pot already at over 5,000 chips, Czech Republic's Daniel Burget bet 5,000 on a flop and Italy's Pasquale Braco called. Braco gave up on the hand after Burget led out for 10,000 when the appeared on the turn.
Braco displayed his disappointment and showed the table he was holding while Burget decided not to expose what he held.
So far there have been no players eliminated from Day 1e of the Main Event. This hasn't stopped Spain's Francisco Jose Blanco Racionere from almost doubling his stack to 175,000, making him the early chip leader.
Racionere shared that he has "slowly" built his stack in the first 40 minutes of play and hasn't been involved in any all in situations.
The Day 1e field size has already grown to 78 players. Among the players noticed in their seats is Germany's Timothy Weltner. In 2015, Weltner agreed to a final table deal and was officially credited the win in his first-ever live poker tournament, the PokerNews Cup Opening Event here at King's Casino.
Since his success there, he has become a regular at King's Casino and other places local to his home in Germany. He decided to enter today's field despite missing out on qualifying for the Main Event via a satellite last night.
