Beim $1.000 Event #45 NLHE schreckten 1.841 Spieler nicht davor zurück, in den Pokerring zu steigen und den Kampf um das Bracelet aufzunehmen. Nach 11 gespielten Blindstufen dezimierte sich das Feld bereits auf 144 erwartungsvolle Titelaspiranten. Die besten Karten hatte bisher Jonathan Bodden. Er konnte seinen Stack auf 143.000 Chips ausbauen und ist damit Chipleader nach Tag Eins des Massenevents.
Durch die 1.841 Entries entstand ein Gesamtpreispool von $1.656.900. Durch den geringen Starting Stack von lediglich 3.000 Chips lichteten sich die Reihen erwartungsmässig schnell. Nach elf Spielstunden durften die verbliebenen Spieler ihre Chips eintüten. Damit wurde bereits die zweite Payout-Stufe mit einem Cash von $2.037 erreicht.
Mit Robert Schulz aus Cottbus, finden wir noch einen Vertreter aus unseren Breitengraden in den Chipcounts. Er rangiert derzeit mit 26.200 Chips auf Position 88.
