Of the players who have yet to find any traction on the starting flights the likes of Leo Kaplin, Jordan Lagano, Colin Phoenix, Mike Crystal, Chris Patric, Scott Murawa, Carol Leonardi, and James Miller will require at least one more bullet to keep their run alive.

Those players who have yet to book a seat on Day 2 or anyone that wants to test their luck in building a bigger and better stack have just one for shot. Day 1d is the fourth and final flight of the event, kicking off immediately after Day 1c played out, with cards in the air at 6 p.m.
