Day 1g of the PokerStars Estrellas Poker Tour (ESPT) Main Event has concluded here at PokerStars European Poker Tour Barcelona, with 262 players progressing to Day 2 from 1,744 entrants.
Late registration for the final flight, Day 1h, has now closed at a total of 1,097 players. That brings the total entries for the event to 7,138, generating an impressive €6,852,400 prize pool.
Canadian high-stakes crusher Andrew Chen rose to the top of the standings after play concluded in Day 1g with 17 minutes left in Level 19, amassing a huge seven-figure stack of 1,077,000. He also takes the mantle of current overall chip leader as the only player to cross the one million mark thus far, with Day 1h yet to conclude.
Chen, who was also responsible for bursting the bubble when he cracked kings, was followed by Irish pro Barry Donovan (670,000), who is looking to push his recorded career earnings over the $300,000 mark, and Frenchman Paul Kraemer (665,000).

Andrew Chen raised 20,000 in early position and Foued Benjima jammed 47,000 from button. Chen shrugged as he made the call.
Foued Benjima: K♠K♣ 
Andrew Chen: A♥10♦
The J♠6♣3♣ flop looked promising for Benjima but he jumped out of his chair and let out some curse words as the A♦ fell on the turn. He couldn't find one of the remaining kings in the deck as the 8♥ completed the board, eliminating him from the tournament.
At another table at the same time:
Vittorio Maugini was seen all in for about 185,000 from the hijack against Peter Farkas on the button.
Vittorio Maugini: A♠K♠
Peter Farkas: A♥A♦
The K♥7♦7♠ flop paired Maugini's king but he was unable to improve as the dealer completed the board with the 4♣ on the turn, and the 10♦ on the river.
