After Day 1a, Renmei Liu finished chipleader with 445,500 while after Day 1b, Andre Santos finished with 456,000, almost the same stack.
For all the Main Event eliminated, this tournament could be a good way to digest that shattered dream, while moving on. And why not aim for the hundreds of thousands of dollars that there will be to win this tournament?

Niveau 1
: Blinds 100/100, 100 ante
One player is already cruising: Kyle Birdwell has twice as many chips as everyone else, after he scored a first elimination.

from his big blind, after a min raise in a multiway pot, and the board came 
.
On the flop, a player bet 400, another one raised to 1,500 and Birdwell called. On the turn, this same player who raised on the flop, bet 3,000 and Birdwell raised to 8,000 with quads.
On the river, Birdwell just shoved after a check from his opponent. Who finally called and busted really soon.
