Petr Setka Bags the Lead at the End of Day 1A
Day 1A of the €1,650 Main Event at the King's Casino in Rozvadov has come to an end. Petr Setka, from the Czech Republic, bagged the chip lead as one of just two players over 200,000 chips.
Setka went about his business quietly throughout the day and emerged as the leader in the last level of play. He was on his second bullet of the day after losing a devastating pot earlier on with against his opponent's .
There were a total of 198 entries to take to the felt today, in what was an action-packed day inside the Poker Arena. After a long 12 levels of play, only 72 players survived to advance to Day 2 on Sunday. Ben Bensimhon (169,200) held the chip lead for the majority of the day, also on his second bullet after being eliminated in the early stages. However, he ran a triple barrel bluff in the last few hands of the night that didn't pan out for him.
There were many notables fortunate to find a bag at the end of the day, including Phil Hellmuth (35,500) who only entered with a couple of hours remaining in the evening. Other notables to advance to Day 2 include Piotr Zawadzki (201,600), Laszlo Toth (186,100), Catalin Pop (165,500), Brandon Cantu (141,500), Fabrice Soulier (117,100), Daniele Primerano (52,000), Vitaly Lunkin (51,100), and Markus Kuhnen (47,000).
A few of those that were eliminated throughout the course of the day were Jeff Lisandro, Erez Hamerov, and Tom Holke.
A full list of those moving on to Day 2 will be posted when it becomes available. The action will resume on Saturday at 2:00 PM with Day 1B of the WSOP Circuit Main Event in Rozvadov.
