After two full flights for the Main Event on Day 1 at the WSOPC Horseshoe Southern Indiana, 170 returning players will be combined with the goal of playing down to final table of ten players. Only Brian Yeager and Harold Dennis crossed the six figure mark, with 143,900 and 112,800 respectively, and will begin the day as the chipleaders.
Notables Bernard Lee (44,700), Chad Batista (18,700), Kevin Saul (56,900), Mark "Pegasus" Smith (24,500) and Aaron Steury (41,000) all return with their eyes on winning a WSOPC ring.
The plan is play down to a final table today, no matter how many levels it should take. Surviving Day 1 were 164 players and six players won entry through a satellite last night. Play will get underway at 1 p.m. EST and be sure to follow all the WSOPC action live on Pokernews.

The player in the hijack opened for 2,100 and Jason Schwartz called from the cutoff. Action passed to Scott Schwalich on the button and raised to 7,000. The blinds released and the other two players came along. The flop fell

Iacovone Gets Lucky
Level 10
: 500/1,000, 100 ante
The player first to act raised to 4,500 and action folded around to Michael Iacovone in the big blind. However, the initial raiser thought that everyone had folded and tabled 
. The floor was called over and Iacovone was told he could still play his hand against the face up hand if he wished. Indeed he did wish to play his hand as he moved all in for his last 9,300.
The opponent threw in 4,800 more to make the call and almost surprised to see he was well ahead of Iacovone's 
. The flop was 
though and Iacovone jumped into the lead. The 
turn and 
river kept him there and he doubled up to 21,000.
Big Pairs, Bigger Flop
Joe Hook opened for 3,100 from early position and Dave Leonard called from the cutoff. Action passed to Bob Brunton in the small blind and he raised to 8,500. Hook moved all in for 17,800 more and Leonard thought for minute while counting his stack.
Leonard released his hand and Brunton called, tabling . Hook turned over 
and watched the board run 
. Hook's set of aces chipped him up to almost 40,000.

Iacovone Tops Nguyen Again
Earlier, a player exposed his to Michael Iacovone and the floor was called over to give him a warning. Iacovone got there against his opponent and a similar situation just occured.
Iacovone moved all in for 17,700 in middle position. The same player who received the warning earlier reraised to 25,000 next to act and action folded around to the player in the big blind who began to tank. The floor was called over again on the opponent when he declared that he did not have Ace-King. He was given another warning but no penalty because it was due to different circumstances. Eventually the player in the big blind folded, claiming to have Jacks.
Iacovone: 
Opponent: 
The flop was 
and again Iacovone had come from behind. The turn 
and river shipped the pot to Iacovone, who seems to have the number of the player to his left early on Day 2.

Chad Batista Eliminated by Rowden
We caught this hand just as Chad Batista was gathering his belongings and leaving the tournament area. Kerry Rowden had raised from early position and action folded around to Batista in the big blind. Batista shoved with his short stack and Rowden called.
Batista: 
Rowden: 
The board ran 
and Rowden's straight eliminated Batista.
