The last rounds of Day 1 bags were sealed today for Event #1: $550 Mini Mystery Millions at the Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas. There were two Day 1 flights, Day 1e and Day 1f (Turbo).
The finalised tallies for the Mini Mystery Millions are remarkable. A total of 20,488 entries across the four Day 1 flights for a total prize pool of $9,352,772. That amount is split between the prize pool ($3,649,482) and the bounties ($4,097,600). At least one of those bounties will be for $1,000,000.
The fast pace of the event means that when the field returns for Day 2 tomorrow, there will just be 792 players left in the action.
The survivors are led by Martin Pineiro with 4,205,000 in chips. He was the Day 1f chip leader, supplanting Tal Avivi at the top of the list.
