The MSPT Main Event rules dictate that Day 1 flights play through either 15 levels, or until 12 percent of the field remains.
Day 1a played down to 12 percent of the field, and the clock stopped with 17 minutes remaining in Level 14. Because of that, Day 1b stopped at that same point.
The plan for Day 1c is to also end play with 17 minutes left at Level 14. Today's action will proceed with 40-minute levels.

The MSPT's latest Southern California stop sees the biggest tournament in the series continue today. The United States Poker Championship $1,110 Main Event features three opening-day flights, the third of which kicks off this afternoon at the Sycuan Casino Event Center in San Diego, CA.
Day 1c begins at 3 p.m., rounding out the trio of starting flights. The starting stack is 25,000, and today's action will play until 17 minutes remain in Level 14.
A $300,000 guaranteed prize pool is on the line, as the 2021 USPC reaches its pinnacle tournament. All surviving players from the trio of Day 1 flights return to Sycuan Casino for Day 2 on Sunday, Sept. 26.
Day 2 begins at 11 a.m., and the tournament will play on until a champion is crowned.
The USPC marks the second time the MSPT has run a series at Sycuan Casino this year. In May, the $1,100 Showdown Series Main Event drew 676 entries, with the prize pool ending up at $654,220.
Alejandro Jauregui took down that tournament, coming away with a $140,665 first-place prize.
The USPC $1,110 Main Event will likely draw some of San Diego's most formidable tournament regulars, as well as plenty of big names. Players like MSPT all-time money leader Rich Alsup already made it through Day 1a, while players like former GPI No. 1 Nick Pupillo, Andrew Moreno, Johnnie Moreno, andJoe Serock were all seen in the field for Friday's Day 1b flight.
The eventual winner of the tournament projects to go home with a sizable piece of at least $300,000 in prize money. The PokerNews live reporting team is on hand throughout the Main Event, so stay tuned!
