Flight E came to an end with 67 players advancing to Day 2, and action ended with less than five minutes remaining in Level 17.

The full list of official chip counts will be posted later tonight, but here’s the top seven chip stacks (everyone with at least 300K) from Flight E:

1.  Alejandro Funes  –  544,000  (68 bb)
2.  Greg Rosen  –  381,000  (48 bb)
3.  Jason Ibrahim  –  372,000  (47 bb)
4.  Stephen Ibrahim  –  331,000  (41 bb)
5.  Daniel Eichhorn  –  328,500  (41 bb)
6.  Michael Newman  –  303,500  (38 bb)
7.  Truyen Nguyen  –  300,000  (38 bb)

Incredibly, Stephen Ibrahim has survived four of the first five starting flights, and he’s received $2,500 for each chip stack after the first — $7,500, plus whatever he makes with his largest stack (331,000) that survived to Day 2.

The surviving players are all guaranteed at least $700 for a min-cash on Day 2, though the full prizepool won’t be available until registration has closed in all eight starting flights.

The final two starting flights will be held tomorrow (Sunday), with Flight G beginning at 11:00 am (registration open until 5:45 pm), and Flight H beginning at 5:00 pm (registration open until 11:45 pm).
