The chase for a share of the $1,000,000 guaranteed prize pool continues today at the Wynn Summer Classic in Las Vegas with two more starting flights on the schedule in the ongoing $1,100 No-Limit Hold’em event.

Day 1E gets underway at 12 p.m. local time, giving players another full-structure opportunity to build a stack for Day 2, while the faster-paced Day 1F Turbo kicks off at 6 p.m. for those looking to take a more aggressive route into the tournament.

Large fields have already packed out the Wynn poker room throughout the opening flights, and today should be no different as players continue piling into one of the marquee events of the early summer schedule.

Day 2 of the $600 No-Limit Hold’em $500K GTD at the Wynn Summer Classic is set for Sunday in Las Vegas, with 164 players returning from a 1,334-entry field as the event moves into its deeper stages.

Sitting in the best possible position is Yurii Zabrodotskyi, who bagged 1,215,000 to take the overnight chip lead. He is closely followed by Cory Waaland (1,079,000) and Ignacio Sole Aparicio (975,000), all three well clear of the chasing pack.

Also returning with healthy stacks are Luis Althoff, Inigo Naveiro Martin, and Karo Nuri, all inside the top five as play resumes.

The top of the counts is rounded out by David Vu, Cyril Williams, Ryan LaPlante, and Javier Fernandez Colomar.

The average stack sits around 320k, meaning the chip leader returns with more than three times the average as players head into what should be a long and pivotal Day 2.

Late registration remains open until the restart at 1:00 p.m. local time, so both the field and prize pool are still subject to change before cards go back in the air.
