Level ten has drawn to an end with 46 players out of 160 entries remaining. Whether or not any player will jump in during the 15-minute break remains to be seen, as the turbo heat 1e is already in full swing as well. The late registration will close when the cards go back in the air.
Level: 11
Blinds: 1,500/2,500

Day 1d has officially closed with at least 161 entries entries, of which 25 players appear to advance to Day 2. All those bowing out from now or wishing to join the action can still sign up for Day 1e. The turbo heat has reached level three with 26 players out of 28 entries remaining.
On the tail end of a K♠2♠2♣A♣5♣ board, Henk Wiese bet 25,000. Cassiem Du Toit called and mucked his cards with plenty of frustration when he was shown the A♠Q♣ by Wiese.
"This guy keeps hitting," another player at the table remarked.
Du Toit was left with around 65,000 in chips and busted shortly after.

Table seven has plenty of bigger stacks seated and one of them is Warren Zackey. He just applied maximum pressure on Alan Jung when he jammed the 5♦3♦2♥ flop. There were only 26,500 in the middle and Jung check-folded after double-checking his cards once again.

On the tail end of a K♣J♠4♠8♦5♦ board, Gavin Sardini pushed all-in for around 40,000. Roman Hertzog called and was shown the K♥3♥ for top pair, which he had beat thanks to a superior kicker holding the K♠10♥.
The Dane appears to be the current chip leader on the final five tables with some 44 players remaining.

Adam Woolf was already all-in and awaiting his fate against two opponents. Once they had checked the 10♦8♣4♠3♥6♥ river, Woolf rolled over his 8♦3♣ for two pair. He was first shown J♣6♠ before Joachim Aucamp flipped over his cards one after the other.
The 10♥ gave him top pair and the A♥ the nut flush, sending Woolf out of Day 1d.
