Frederico Bastos Leads After Day 1A of $1.5m Guaranteed $1,100 NLH Event
After the success of the first $1,500,000 guaranteed event — won by Maxim Lykov — players will be hoping this event duplicates or exceeds the 1,579 entries, $1,523,735 prize pool, and $230,842 top prize.
So far, with just one flight down and two more to go, things are looking good. Yesterday's flight reached 568 entries and $548,120 in the prize pool. As a result, the event is already one-third of the way to its guarantee.
From those 568 entries, only 71 remain.
They will return on June 5 to combine with the other survivors for Day 2 of the event.
Leading the 71 is Frederico Bastos with 1,680,000 in chips. He has a substantial lead over Stephen Dauphinias, who sits in second place with 961,000.
