There are 25 players remaining in the first flight of the $500 Monumental event with a $10,000 guarantee.

The field includes Clint Houck, a family man who spoke to PokerNews earlier in the day about a tribute he give his kids in all his winners photos. We'll have content on that shortly.

Only 23 players will advance to Thurday's Day 2 and they will all be in the money.
