The Main Event satellite attracted a total of 92 entries and the top eight finishers received the ticket for tomorrow's remaining two flights, while ninth place walked away with a cash prize.
In the meanwhile, the Cubeia Platinum Freeroll with a $5,000 prize pool sponsored by the online poker provider is underway with some 67 entries and 52 players remaining.
Raffaele De Nicola checked the 10♦4♠4♣Q♠ turn and then called a bet of 10,000 by Jinhyun Kim, which led them to the 6♥ on the river. Once more, the Italian checked and Kim pushed for around 25,000 after using one time bank.
De Nicola called and was good with the A♣Q♦, as Kim only revealed Q♥J♥.
Raffaele De Nicola opened to 3,200 and was called by Lukasz Jankowski in the cutoff. Edzel Villares three-bet to 9,300 in the small blind and De Nicola folded, while Jankowski reluctantly called. On the A♦5♦5♣ flop, both players checked. Villares bet the 10♣ turn for 5,000 and won the pot uncontested.
Only Jinhyun Kim jumped in at the last minute for Day 1c to ensure a field of 15 entries of which the top two finishers will advance to Day 2.
When the players came back from the break, Christopher Su and Marko Tabak clashed to provide the following preflop showdown.
Marko Tabak: Q♣Q♠ 
Christopher Su: A♠5♣
The 7♣6♠2♠A♦3♣ runout gave Su the superior pair and Tabak was gone.
Level: 12
Blinds: 800/1,600
Ante: 1,600
Upon completion of level 11, the six remaining players out of 14 entries have been sent on a scheduled 15 minute break and thats also how long the late registration is still open.
Raffaele De Nicola raised to 2,800 from under the gun and was called three ways to the 10♦6♦2♥ flop on which it checked to the Italian. De Nicola bet 2,400 and Christopher Su on the button raised to 5,000. Back on De Nicola, he flat-called and checked the 3♦ on the turn. Su bet 10,000 and De Nicola called before checking the 10♣ on the river.
Su pulled the trigger and pushed all-in with the covering stack. De Nicola used one time bank and then made the call to get shown the 10♥9♣ for trips tens by Su, which he had beat with the K♦Q♦. The double of De Nicola was for 77,400, which put a huge dent into Su's former big stack.
On the river of a 10♦6♣5♥9♠6♠ board with around 20,000 in the middle, Ephraim Guevarra pushed all-in for the last 51,800. He was up against the chip leader Lukasz Jankowski, who asked for an exact count.
After some consideration, Jankowski called and already rolled over his 10♥9♦ for tens and nines. Guevarra nodded and tossed his cards right into the muck before leaving. On the way out, he ran into Edzel Villares who is going to re-enter shortly.
Ephraim Guevarra check-folded the A♣8♠7♦J♠ turn when Lukasz Jankowski bet 25,000 into 33,000 to apply pressure with his chip-leading stack.
Raffaele De Nicola then opened to 4,200 shortly after and snap-called when former big stack Edzel Villares jammed for 17,900 in the next seat.
Edzel Villares: Q♥10♥
Raffaele De Nicola: A♥J♦
Villares took the lead on the Q♣5♥3♥ flop but De Nicola got there with the A♦ turn, the river was the blank 4♠.
