Players are back in their seats after the second break of the day and registration is officially closed for the first flight. A total of 326 entries puts Event 1 well ahead of the pace needed to crush the $500,000 guaranteed prize pool.

We were going to speak of Ido Ashkenazi and his pre-break big hand. He knocked someone out and took a ton off another player when his AhQc held against KsTh and Ts9s. The hand moved Ashkenazi up near 80,000 but it didn’t last long.

We went to grab a pic of the man after the break only to find him shaking his head and hitting the rail. His quick exit came at the hands of Jennifer Parker when his full house was crushed by her bigger boat. The hand moved Parker up to 287,000 and she is the clear leader with six more levels to play in the flight.

Parker has only one recorded tournament cash, but it was a nice one. She finished 19th out of 819 players two weeks ago during the 2016 WSOP Ladies Championship.
