MAIN EVENT ($1,320)

With 13 players remaining, Day 1B ended abruptly as two eliminations occurred at the same time, skipping the usual hand-for-hand bubble play.

Among those eliminated was Nguyen Thai Quang, who moved all-in for his final 40,000 from the big blind, facing off in a race against chip leader Khayal Abbasov. The board ran out A♦ 3♦ 8♠ J♠ 6♦ , offering no help to Nguyen, as Abbasov stayed ahead from start to finish.

On the other table, Lining Tan joined Nguyen in disappointment, falling just a few spots short of reaching Day 2 and securing a cash.

Only six more eliminations are due before the flight wraps up, leaving just 11 players out of the 89-entry field onto Day 2 by night's end.
