Adit Kumar Leads Day 1C Survivors Into Day 2

Level 14: 3,000 / 5,000 ante: 5,000

After 14 levels of play and more than 12 hours of action, Day 1C has officially come to an end with 25 players surviving from the 148-entry field.

Leading the final flight is Adit Kumar, who bagged a massive 557,000 chips. Aleksandr Goloborodko follows closely with 513,000, while Hendrik Uibo rounds out the top three with 410,000.

The Championship Event finished with an overlay, as the combined 391 entries across all three starting flights did not reach the $500,000 guaranteed prize pool. The exact overlay amount will be confirmed once the final prize pool is announced.

With 25 players advancing from Day 1C, the total number of survivors heading into Day 2 now stands at 61.

Only 49 players will make the money, meaning just 12 eliminations are needed before the field reaches the paid places and the bubble bursts.

Tomorrow at 11:30 AM, the real battle begins. With no more re-entry available, every remaining stack is now locked in, and the focus shifts entirely to surviving the bubble and making a deep run.

Congratulations to all 61 players who found their bags across the three starting flights, and good luck to everyone returning for Day 2.

Estacion’s Exit Leaves an All-Male Field

Level 14: 3,000 / 5,000 ante: 5,000

Lorelyn Estacion

The last woman remaining in the field, Lorelyn Estacion, has been eliminated after moving all in for her remaining 38,000 from the big blind. Law Hui Hean Edwin made the call.

Lorelyn Estacion: T♥ T♠

Law Hui Hean Edwin: K♣ Q♦

The Q♥ 8♦ 2♠ flop immediately favored Edwin, pairing his queen and leaving Estacion with just two outs.

The 3♣ turn and 5♥ river failed to bring either of them, and Edwin's top pair held to complete the knockout.

Just like that, the field is now all-male, with Estacion's elimination marking the end of the tournament's last female player's run.

Queens Hold in Big Flip

Level 14: 3,000 / 5,000 ante: 5,000

Kai Perng Heng

Early position Kai Perng Heng opened to 11,000, then faced an all-in for 104,000 from Shengwei Liang.

Heng thought for almost two minutes before eventually making the call.

Shengwei Liang: A♠ K♣

Kai Perng Heng: Q♦ Q♠

It was a classic preflop flip, but the board ran T♦ 4♣ 3♠ 5♣ 8♦, giving Heng's queens a clean runout.

The pocket queens held all the way to secure the pot and eliminate Liang.

No Bad Beat for Martynov

Level 14: 3,000 / 5,000 ante: 5,000

Vladimir Martynov

Vladimir Martynov three-bet shoved for 112,000 from the big blind, and initial raiser Yutong Mo made the call.

Vladimir Martynov: J♣ J♥

Yutong Mo: 9♣ 9♥

The board ran A♦ K♦ 6♣ K♠ 5♦, with no bad beat coming for Martynov.

His pocket jacks held all the way, securing a full double up and leaving Mo with just 1,000 chips, which was not enough to survive for long as he was eliminated shortly after.

Ho’s Nines Find a Safe Runout

Level 13: 2,000 / 4,000 ante: 4,000

With 49,500 left, Koon Leong Ho moved all in, and Yutong Mo on the button made the call.

Koon Leong Ho: 9♣ 9♥

Yutong Mo: A♣ Q♠

Ho nearly secured the win immediately after flopping middle set on the K♠ 9♦ 2♣ board.

The 5♦ turn changed nothing and effectively sealed the pot, with no runner-runner comeback for Mo.

Ho's pocket nines held, giving him a much-needed double up.

Kishimoto Couple’s Main Event Run Ends Together

Level 13: 2,000 / 4,000 ante: 4,000

Miyoung Kishimoto

Miyoung Kishimoto moved all in for 65,000 into a 78,000 pot on the Q♥ J♠ 7♣ 7♦ board.

Aleksandr Goloborodko took around a minute to think through the decision before eventually making the call, putting Kishimoto at risk.

Miyoung Kishimoto: 9♥ 9♠

Aleksandr Goloborodko: A♠ J♦

Goloborodko's call was good, as his two pair was ahead of Kishimoto's pocket nines.

The Q♦ river changed nothing, and Goloborodko completed the knockout.

The elimination came at an even tougher moment, as Miyoung's husband, Kaoru Kishimoto, had also just been eliminated.

The two left the venue around the same time, bringing their Championship Event dreams to an end together.

Bagci Bags the River

Level 12: 1,500 / 3,000 ante: 3,000

Ali Bagci

Folded to the button, Ali Bagci opened to 6,000, only to face an all-in from big blind Lars Hougaard. Bagci called for his remaining 48,000.

Ali Bagci: Q♦ Q♠

Lars Hougaard: K♠ 5♠

The K♣ J♣ 3♣ flop gave Hougaard the instant lead, leaving Bagci with just two outs to survive.

The J♦ turn changed nothing, and Bagci looked headed for the rail.

But the Q♣ river was pure jackpot, giving Bagci one of his two outs to make a full house and secure the double up.

Level 12: 1,500 / 3,000 ante: 3,000

Middle position Seongho Cho opened to 6,000, and both blinds made the call.

All three players checked the A♥ 7♣ 4♦ flop.

Cho then bet 7,000 on the T♦ turn, with only small blind Aleksandr Goloborodko calling.

The J♦ river was checked by Goloborodko, but he faced one final decision when Cho moved all in for 49,000.

After some thought, Goloborodko eventually folded, allowing Cho to take down the pot without a showdown.
