Gary Lucci raised to 25,000 from under the gun, the player in the big blind three-bet shoved for 84,000 and Lucci called with AhQd, racing with his opponent’s JcJh.

The board came down AdKhKc10cAc, giving Lucci aces full of kings to eliminate his opponent.

A player fell at another table as well, giving the 64 remaining players a seat on Day 2. Among them were Stewart Newman and Daren Stabinski, each surviving with just 2,000 in chips and earning $2,500 apiece as multi-stack winners.
