Days 1f and 1g of the Main Event of The Hendon Mob Winter Championships have concluded here at the Grand Casino, Liechtenstein, with 41 players surviving from a total of 168 entries.
Marko Ilicic (329,000) and Roland Oswald (291,000) bagged top 3 stacks in Day 1f, while Gordon Paterson (381,000) and Stipe Orec (315,000) topped the chip counts for Day 1g, all of whom remain some way behind overall chip leader Nicola Diaco (1,045,000).
Paterson never looked back after hitting a full house against Thomas Hofmann and continued to chip up throughout the day with an aggressive approach, taking a large pot off Dieter Pichler at the very end of the flight.
Orec was also active throughout the day and knocked out Hofmann and Franco Spichtig in the last hand to accumulate a sizeable stack for Day 2.
Players such as Tomas Pihurik and Christian Beer did not quite manage to find a bag for Day 2, but will have one final opportunity to do so in the Day 1h turbo flight.
Day 1h will take place at noon Sunday, February 4 and features 15-minute blind levels, but otherwise follows the same structure as previous flights.
Day 2 will commence at 4 p.m. on Sunday, February 4 and will feature 45-minute levels. Players who survive to Day 3 will return on Monday, February 5 at 6 p.m., also to 45-minute levels, for their tilt at the trophy.
PokerNews will be providing full live coverage of the Main Event of the Hendon Mob Winter Championships from Day 2 onwards, so stay tuned to see who ends up taking home the crown and the lion's share of the 150,000 CHF guaranteed prize pool.
