Vier Starttage sind beim $565 Colossus der WSOP 2018 absolviert, und bislang kamen knapp 7.500 Teilnehmer zusammen, von denen sich 299 für Tag 2 qualifiziert haben.
Die endgültigen Zahlen gibt es dann in der kommenden Nacht, wenn die beiden letzten Flights absolviert sind.
An den Tagen 1C und 1D stürzten sich auch einige bekannte Spieler ins Getümmel wie Chris Ferguson, Kevin MacPhee, Kristen Bicknell oder Tony Dunst.
Während die Genannten Tag 2 aber verpassten, schafften andere Big Names wie John Racener, Alex Foxen und Phil Ivey den Sprung in die nächste Runde.
Von den deutschsprachigen Spielern schaffte nur Stefan Huber die Qualifikation und gesellte sich damit zu den bereits Qualifizierten Danny Schulz, Markus Kühnen und Andreas Krause.
Chipleader bleibt weiterhin der Amerikaner Anthony Parille, der an Tag 1a 607.000 Chips eintüten konnte
