Justin Newton, Mike Sowers, David Bach, Tony Licastro, and Nenad Medic lead the field by our last chip count, with over 200,000 each. Also moving on to Day 2 are a slew of poker luminaries, among them Phil Laak, Eli Elezra, Patrik Antonius, Alex Kostritsyn, David Benyamine, and Chris Ferguson.

Official chip counts will be posted as soon as they become available.

Join us tomorrow at 2 p.m. PDT for continuing coverage of Event #1, as the field plays down to the final table.

From the Rio in Las Vegas, that's a wrap!
