Roman Emelyanov has become the first player to leave the tournament. Emelyanov cashed this event back in 2015, where he finished 15th for €77,900. The Russian has the option to do a re-entry up until the third level of the second day, still plenty of time to make up his mind.

Dietrich Fast three-bet an open raise by Vladimir Troyanovskiy from 525 to 2,000 and Troyanovskiy called. On the 
flop both players checked and Troyanovskiy check-folded the 
turn to a bet worth 3,700. Troyanovskiy has already lost a decent portion of his stack, while Gerald Karlic in the seat next to Fast is off to a good start.
Martin Finger has even more than that. After a preflop raise and three-bet to 1,600 by Andrew Chen, Finger called and check-called a bet worth 1,600 on the 
flop. On the 
turn, Finger check-called a bet worth 4,400 and then bet the 
river for 8,300.
Chen tossed in a chip for the call and flashed one of his cards, then mucked when he was shown 
by Finger.

In the previous hand, the board showed 
and Sean Winter checked before Fahredin Mustafov bet 4,400. Winter check-raised to 16,000 from the cutoff, Mustafov then used one of his time banks. Ultimately, Winter forced a fold, showing the 
.
One hand later, Winter opened to 500 from the hijack and Mustafov three-bet to 2,000 from one seat over. He looked over to Winter and cracked a smile, as did other players at the table, and Winter called. Winter ended up check-calling the 
flop for 2,000 and checked the turn as well. Mustafov now bet 5,000 and Winter check-raised to 16,000 once again.
Mustafov folded ... and was shown the again, causing more laughter at the table.
Nick Petrangelo then arrived at the table after just having signed up and said "Sean, what are you doing here? You didn't play any until this one?" which Winter confirmed, as he had just arrived here in Monte-Carlo.

Markus Durnegger already took down a 7,000-pot without showdown early on and just claimed another, this time against initial raiser Orpen Kisacikoglu on the cutoff. Durnegger in the big blind and his sole opponent checked the 
turn and Durnegger then bet the river for 1,250, which was pretty much exactly the size of the pot.
Kisacikoglu called and was shown 
by the Austrian, which was good enough to win the pot.
