Jose Pinedamoncada Leads After Day 1
The only event to kick off on Saturday was Event #42: $1,500 Extended-Play No-Limit Hold'em. What's different about this one? 90-minute levels throughout the tournament. A field of 1,914 came to play and after seven levels on Day 1, only 543 players remain. The top 198 places will make the money and first place is set at $478,102.
On top of the chip counts is Jose Pinedamoncada with 113,950, but many notables are still in the hunt. Among them are Yevgeniy Timoshenko (73,850), Justin Zaki (61,275), Nacho Barbero (47,550), Matt Stout (41,225), Darryll Fish (41,125) and Mukul Pahuja (39,800).
Play resumes Sunday at 1 p.m.
