Exciting End For Flight C With Two Players Out At The Bubble

Level 19: 5,000 / 10,000 ante: 10,000

Elmer Kalaquian

With that we have the final 11 players advancing to Day 2 of the Kick-off on the books, making it a total of 50 out of 337 over all three flights.

Without us noticing, Elmer Kalaquian fought his way to the top, bagging a respectable 370,000, Christopher Mateo - who just missed the cut-off in Flight B finishing in 33rd earlier in the day - close on his heels with 359,000 and Manuel Geronimo, who was very active throughout the whole day, coming in 3rd with 318,000 to his name.

The action will continue tomorrow at noon with the final 50 battling it out until the last player standing.

Here are the complete chip counts of Flight C :

Anthony Castro boots Shirai Hiroto on the bubble

On the other table we have Shirai Hiroto at risk, being all-in for 52,000 from HJ with K♥ J♠ and a call behind from Anthony Castro with K♣ Q♠ to dominate. The dealer delivers another bubble hitting the felt with 9♥ A♠ 3♣ 5♣ T♦ to close the day with 11 instead of 12 players advancing to Day 2.
