From a field of 173 players on Day 1a of the Wynn Summer Classic $10,000 Championship, just 64 advanced to Day 2.

They are led by Latvia's Pavel Spirins from Bill Klein, the only two players to bag above 300,000 in chips. As expected, plenty of big names feature in the list of survivors including Thomas Eychenne and Artur Martirosian who sit among the top ten.
