Day 1b saw 112 entrants and ballooned the prize pool to over $140,000, easily covering the $100,000 guarantee. After 12 levels of play at 30 minutes each, just 24 survived.

The Day 1b chip leader was Miguel Hernandez, who ran his stack to an impressive 187,500, but still behind Day 1a chip leader Jesse McVicker (254,000). Other notables to advance to Sunday's Day 2 are Jonathan Gaviao (180,500), Clyde Lorance (137,000), Stephen McKinney (166,500), and Papa Karn (117,500).

Many notables tried and failed to get through Day 1b, including Justin Gardenhire, Mike Rieck, and John “Cracker” Reynolds. They will have one more flight to try, if they choose, as the third and final Day 1 flight will start in just a few moments.

The 24 players who did advance will combine with survivors from Friday’s flight and Saturday evening’s Day 1c flight to play Day 2, which starts at noon local time on Sunday. Be sure to stay tuned to PokerNews as we will bring you continued coverage all the way to crowning a champion.

Edens Finds a Big Double

Level 12 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante
Curtis Edens
Curtis Edens

A player in middle position raised to 5,000 which was met with a raise to 21,000. Action folded to Curtis Edens in the big blind and he moved all in for 66,700. The original raiser folded and the three-bettor asked "do you have aces", as he threw out chips for the call. Indeed, Edens did have {a-Diamonds}{a-Hearts} versus the {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds} of his opponent.

The board ran out {q-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} and Edens doubled up.

Hernandez Takes a Chunk from Campanello

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

We caught the action after a flop of {5-Hearts}{9-Spades}{10-Hearts} and Miguel Hernandez checked to Bryan Campanello who bet 9,500. Hernandez raised to 25,000 and Campanello moved all in. Hernandez quickly called for approximately 68,000 total.

Campanello: {j-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}

Hernandez: {6-Hearts}{8-Hearts}

The {4-Clubs} turn kept Campanello safe, but the {7-Hearts} river flushed Hernandez and dented the stack of Campanello.

Lorance Busts Two

Level 10 : 800/1,600, 300 ante
Clyde Lorance
Clyde Lorance

On back-to-back hands, we saw Clyde Lorance nicely increase his stack with a set on each. On the first hand he had to wait until the river as his pocket jacks caught back up against the {a-}{10-} of his all-in opponent on a {a-}{8-}{7-}{7-}{j-} runout.

The next hand, he eliminated another another opponent as he flopped his opponent's {a-Spades}{k-Clubs} dead to a chop when his pocket nines found a match on the {6-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} flop. The {2-Clubs}{5-Spades} runout gave Lorance a healthy stack.

Campanello Applies Pressure

Level 10 : 800/1,600, 300 ante

A player opened to 3,500 from the hijack and Bryan Campanello three-bet to 8,000 from the button. Action folded back to the original raiser and he made the call. The flop was {8-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{5-Spades} and both players checked. The {2-Spades} came on the turn and Campanello fired 9,000 after a check from his opponent.

After a fold from his opponent, Campanello gathered the pot.
