After building a big lead early in Day 1a of the WinStar River Poker Series Main Event, Matthew Lapossie went on to bubble Day 2.

He lost with {a-}{k-} to the pocket fives of Maxx Coleman, who bagged the Day 1a chip lead with more than 800,000.

Lapossie is back in the field today after taking the day off yesterday and looking to improve by at least one spot and bag Day 2.

A top five finish in this event could put him over the $1 million mark in live tournament earnings. He currently has $835,877 in earnings with his biggest score coming in 2014 when he won WPT Fallsview for $326,235.

He had three cashes this summer at the WSOP after taking a year off.
