Event #13: $3,000 Main Event
Day 1c Started
The first two flights have come and gone in Event 13: $3,000 Main Event $2 Million Guaranteed here in Round Rock, Texas at The Lodge Poker Club. A total of 122 entries were compiled in such flights and 48 advanced on to Day 2. Leading the way thus far is Raymond Brint who managed to bag 401,500 in Day 1a.
Day 1c is set to begin at 11 a.m. and all who sit down will see a stack of 50,000. Blinds will be a reasonable 50-minutes in length, giving plenty of time for the players to pick their spots. The late registration period will remain open until the start of Level 7 and the night will end after Level 9, or when just 15% of the field is left standing.
All survivors who advanced from a Day 1 flight will return Sunday, May 22, at 2 p.m. for the second day. A total of ten levels will be played on the second, all being 60-minutes in length and all survivors will then bag up for Day 3. The third day will play down to just six players before the night commences, at 75-minute levels and will return to crown a champion on Tuesday, May 24.
The PokerNews live reporting team will be bringing all of the updates throughout the event, so stay tuned as all of the action unfolds.

The third flight of the Main Event has 36 entries already at the start of Level 2.
Bin Weng is the 40th entry in the field and has just taken a seat on Table 27. He looks surprisingly rested after spending 14 hours on the felt yesterday.
Weng's long grind ended around 4 a.m. during the final day of the High Roller just last night when he took an exit in 6th place for a respectable $21,123.

The most accomplished player to start Day 1c is also sitting on top of the field early.
Andrew Moreno has just under $3 million in career earnings and is off to a hot start thus far, having 121,000 after just one level.
It might be early but it most certainly wouldn't be a shock if he finishes on top of the field as well when it is time to bag up.
