It has just been confirmed that 155 players will advance to Day 2 from Day 1d. They'll join the 178 qualifiers from Day 1a and Day 1b for tomorrow's Day 2.
A player must physically bag and tag a stack to be in the money and make the next stage of the Main Event.
It has now been confirmed that 929 rather than 932 entries have taken place in Day 1c. Day 1d has also seen 202 entries so far.
This brings the overall total to 2,189 which eclipsed the record-setting field from WPO Madrid back in May. Late registration is open until the start of Level 14 in Day 1d so the final total is not yet confirmed.
A huge €964,480 sits in the prizepool.
