According to the screens, there are 91 entries for Day 1d thus far and the players headed into their first 15-minute break. Only one seat open has been recorded and Paul van Alst has a triple stack to top the early action of the last starting day.
Others in include Michal Riczak, Rochen and SantaClaus.
While Day 1c of the 2017 PokerNews Cup Rozvadov €250 Main Event is well underway, the preparations for the fourth and final flight as of 5 p.m. local time are currently underway in the King's Casino in Rozvadov. All participants that bust after the end of the registration period on 1c will very likely head straight over to the last starting day.
As usual, all players will receive 30,000 in chips and a total of 15 levels of 30 minutes each are scheduled. The registration remains open until the end of level 11 and all participants can re-enter twice in each flight in order to take a shot at the guaranteed prize pool of €200,000.
Leading the field of 33 survivors thus far is Day 1a chip leader Vytautas Milbutas with his monster stack of 696,000, followed by fellow countryman Paulius Katinas with 546,000. Bariskaan Cinitas bagged up the second-most chips on Day 1b with 475,000 and defending champion Timur Caglan sits in fourth place overall after the first two starting days with very healthy 354,500.
