The former feature table brought back six players to the main tournament area and Kinesh Pather was the shortest stack. With the prospect of another flipout for Day 1c to take place, Pather took two seats and won his second seat.
In the meanwhile, Stephen Courtney raised to 10,000 in the hijack and Jedd Kossew three-bet to 23,000 in the cutoff. Courtney called and check-folded the 8♦7♥2♦ flop, Kossew showed the Q♣Q♥ for an overpair.

Johan De Graaff raised and earned two callers in Nic Ioannoy as well as NT. As they headed to the 9♣4♥2♥ flop, De Graaff got it in for 81,000 with the Q♠9♠ for the top pair. NT looked him up with A♥6♥ for the nut flush draw but bricked on the J♠ turn and 3♠ river.

Sugen Singh raised and then folded to the shoves by Fabio Cornelli and Janno Cazemier with the former at risk.
Fabio Cornelli: A♣Q♦
Janno Cazemier: A♥K♠
The 6♣5♣4♦ flop changed nothing but Cornelli had running clubs at his disposal. Instead, he was drawing dead on the K♦ turn to make the 8♥ river a formality.

Lukman A raised to 16,000 and was called by Nic Ioannoy in the cutoff. Henk Wiese then got his shorter stack of around 50,000 in from the big blind and Lukman A reraised to force out Ioannoy, who mucked the Q♣J♠.
Henk Wiese: 5♠5♥
Lukman A: A♦Q♠
The 10♦10♣8♥ flop gave Lukman A additional outs and he then improved with the Q♥ turn. Down to just two outs, Wiese couldn't escape anymore with the blank K♣ river and departed a few spots away from securing a spot on Day 2.

Joining the action on the K♥10♥9♣ flop, Joe Rahme from under the gun checked and so did Imran Bhojani in the cutoff. Stephen Courtney bet 18,000 on the button for Rahme and Bhojani to call.
That led them to the 3♣ turn on which they checked to Courtney again. He bet 20,000 and Rahme instantly called, before Bhojani raised to 80,000. Courtney reluctantly folded and Rahme came to the same conclusion as he tapped the table in defeat.
"Queen jack," Sugen Singh declared and Bhojani replied "you always know what I have" before rolling over the 2♥.
Bhojani leaped above half a million and trails only Jedd Kossew atop the leaderboard.
