This is the final starting flight in the event, and many players have participated in at least one – if not more – starting flight before tonight. So there’s a little feeling of anxiety – “can I make Day 2 this time?”
But it’s almost – not quite, but almost – counter-balanced by the “been there, done that” attitude of experienced players who may have played countless Day 1s in their poker ‘career’.
Going into level 9 there is only one player with over 100K in his stack – but there are several others knocking on the door, and there’s a ton of poker yet to be played tonight. Here is a current leaderboard for Day 1F with chip leader Miguel Goncalo standing atop the list.
| First Name | Last Name | Chip Count |
|---|---|---|
| Miguel | Goncalo | 114,000 |
| Yu | Chen Chen | 99,000 |
| Ian | O'Shaughnessy | 98,000 |
| Shahar | Ohaion | 95,800 |
| Anthony | De Iuliis | 91,400 |
| Fabrizio | Bruno | 90,100 |
| Bob | T | 87,200 |
| Marc | Petit | 82,400 |
