$1,100 Main Event

Day 1c Started

Final Starting Flight of the $1,110 MSPT Main Event Starts at Noon

MSPT
MSPT

Two flights down, one to go: It’s time for Day 1c of the Mid-States Poker Tour (MSPT) Running Aces $1,110 Main Event.

The third and final starting flight presents the next opportunity for players to earn their seats for a Day 2 birth.

Thursday’s first starting flight saw 238 entries take to the felt while yesterday's Day 1b saw another 348 added to the tally, bringing the two-day total up to 586.

Just like the yesterday's starting flight, cards will be in the air at Noon local time and players will start with a stack of 25,000.

Levels will be of 40-minutes in length with 10-minute breaks coming after every two hours and players will get a 40-minute dinner break after Level 9.

Late registration/re-entries will remain available until the start of Level 13 and players are allowed unlimited re-entries until that point.

As for the happenings on the first two days, Day 1b saw Terence Reid bag the chip lead thus far with 653,000, as he's the only player north of 600k while Sandeep Cherukuri (580,000), Matt Wolff (506,000), and Kirby Rogers (506,000) are the only other players that eclipsed the 500k mark.

So far, a little less than half of the 71 players currently on the Day 2 bagged north of the chip average and one last group of players will try to add their names to the list today.

Anderson Sets Up a Double

Level 1 : Blinds 100/100, 100 ante
Blake Anderson

There was heads-up action between Blake Anderson from middle position and the button with a {9-Clubs}{2-Spades}{6-Spades}{4-Diamonds} board showing.

With 14,500 already in the middle, Anderson led out for 8,000 and his opponent called bringing the {k-Spades} river.

Anderson check-called his opponents all in, and the two players tabled their hands.

Anderson rolled over {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds} for a set of nines and it was good as his opponent tossed {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds} into the muck.
