Thus Day One of the PNC Main Event comes to a close.

129 players have been whittled down to a mere 33 in just eight hours of play, and it looks as though it might be a short day tomorrow. Mark Vos currently leads by an astounding 2-to-1 ratio over anyone else, while Marcel Luske and Franciscus Dekkers take second and third places respectively in the counts for the time being. Notable players who fell by the wayside today and will presumably be spending tomorrow skiing instead include Tony G, Erich Kollmann, Markus Golser, David Saab, Noah Boeken and, on the very last hand of the night, John Duthie.

Join us tomorrow from 2pm GMT+1 when we will be playing down to our final table.
