Entries: 41/177
Paul Carr was among the players to enter during the dinner break. He may not have won a car, but instead won a big flip. Carr committed his 16 big blind stack from early position against Anthony Bone from the big blind.
Paul Carr: A♣Q♥
Anthony Bone: J♦J♥
Carr connected with his queen on the 4♠K♥Q♠6♣4♥ runout to stay alive and double his stack.
Paul Carr – 170,000
Anthony Bone – 80,000

O’Kearney Runs Into Meijer’s Big Slick
Level 10: 2,000/4,000 (4,000)
Entries: 49/174
Level 11: 3,000/5,000 (5,000)
Entries: 49/177
Dara O’Kearney entered at the last moment for his second bullet of Day 1a but unfortunately, this didn’t go to plan for the poker author and The Chip Race cohost.
Remko Meijer jammed for 15 big blinds from late position before O’Kearney called off his starting stack from the big blind.
Dara O’Kearney: A♣10♦
Remko Meijer: A♦K♣
Ace-ten didn’t get there on the K♦6♦7♥Q♣5♣ runout and O’Kearney will have to try again during one of the other five opening flights for a chance to advance to Day 2 and beyond.
Remko Meijer – 135,000
Dara O’Kearney – 0

27 Players (or Less) Advance to Day 2
Level 11: 3,000/5,000 (5,000)
Entries: 53/177
A handful of new players hopped into the field before the action resumed from the dinner break. The field grew to 177 entries with 53 players remaining.
The Day 1a action will conclude when 27 players are remaining, each of which will be in the money. This could turn out to be less if multiple players hit the rail during the final hand of the day.
Best of luck to all of the players in their hunt for a bag on Day 1a.
