There will be a hard stop at nine players remaining or at the end of level 18, whichever of the two comes first.
Out of the 230 entries, only 64 players remain and the field is shrinking at an alarming rate. It is likely that the payout spots for Day 1A will be reached within the 18 levels and a hard stop at the final 9 players is foreseen.

Dariusz Paszkiewicz was already all in and awaiting his fate while Stanislav Parkhomenko pushed all in for 22,900 on the 
flop. Hao Tian had him covered and was sent into the think tank, after more than 90 seconds he finally called.
Dariusz Paszkiewicz: 
Stanislav Parkhomenko: 
Hao Tian: 
Tian was marginally ahead, but had to dodge a lot of outs.
"The ace is coming," Parkhomenko said with confidence and sure enough his predictation came true on the 
turn, the 
river completed the board and Parkhomenko doubled through Tian while knocking out Paszkiewicz.
