The total number of entrants for Day 1c of the Winamax SISMIX Main Event has burst through the 500 mark, with 502 players having registered. 294 of them remain, but with late registration open for another level and a half, that number looks set to grow.
It puts the total in this already record-breaking Winamax SISMIX Mian Event to 1,236, easily surpassing the 1,078 from last year's event.
Pierre Calamusa looked to be in a good position to send Abdou Zizi to the rail with the Winamax Team Pro holding 
against Zizi's 
.
There was an ace on the flop, but a king also as the full board came 
meaning Calamusa's set beat the top pair of Zizi. Calamusa already had close to 170,000, and with this elimination he soared up the counts to around 270,000.

Mustapha Kanit opened to 4,500 and the big blind called. The big blind check-called a bet of 4,000 on the 
flop but check-folded to a bet of 12,000 from the Italian, known as "lasagnammmm" online, on the turn.
Meanwhile Bruno Lopes was doubling up an opponent. The 2015 winner held 
on a 
runout, but his opponent had scored a small but meaningful double with 
for trip twos. 'Kool Shen' still sits on 115,000.
Rejoining the field is Guillaume Diaz. The winner of the EPT Monte Carlo National last month, he has a fresh stack of 50,000 to play with with half an hour left in the level.

| Day 1a | Day 1b | Day 1c | Total | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2016 | 179 | 294 | 428 | 901 |
| 2017 | 217 | 369 | 492 | 1078 |

One of the first eliminations after late registration closed was Winamax Team Pro Leo Margets who moved all in with a flush draw on a 
board, and was called by an opponent holding a jack. The flush draw didn't get there and she was eliminated.
