Only Three MILLIONS Online KO Edition Main Event Day 1s Remain

Time is rapidly running out if you want to become the inaugural partypoker MILLIONS Online KO Edition Main Event or Mini Main Event champion because only three flights remain in each. Buy in direct, SPINS your way to a seat, or win one via the many Mega Sats running throughout the weekend, just do not miss your chance of becoming a MILLIONS Online KO Edition Main Event champion and getting your hands on a massive prize.

$1 Million Gtd Main Event

Some 626 players have battled it out in the first three flights of the $1,050 buy-in $1 million guaranteed Main Event. Of those starters, only 94 have made it through to Day 2, doing so having locked up a min-cash from the main prize pool in addition to any bounties they banked during their Day 1.

Malta-based Belgian Michael Gathy is the chip leader going into the weekend. The four-time WSOP bracelet winner finished his flight with 17,734,856 chips. Gathy has already collected $1,750 in bounties, too!

The rest of the Day 2 field reads like a who’s who of the poker world, as you would expect from such a prestigious tournament. Here are the top ten after Day 1C.

Place | Player | Country | Bounties | Chips
1 | Michael Gathy | Malta | $1,750 | 17,734,856
2 | Pablo Brito Silva | Brazil | $1,687 | 16,527,193
3 | Jesus Ucero | Estonia | $1,875 | 16,377,852
4 | Simon Mattsson | Sweden | $2,250 | 15,720,010
5 | Jonathan Proudfoot | United Kingdom | $1,937 | 14,282,170
6 | Joshua McCully | New Zealand | $2,312 | 14,077,248
7 | Lukas Gloor | United Kingdom | $2,312 | 13,846,655

10 | Gabriele Re | Brazil | $2,250 | 12,827,411

$500,000 Gtd Mini Main Event

It is a similar story in the Mini Main Event which is only mini in name because there is a $500,000 guarantee on its prize pool. From Day 1A to 1C, some 2,468 players have bought in and put $246,800 into the prize pool. That means less than half of the guarantee has been collected, and could result in extra value to entrants through an overlay.

Only 358 players have made it through to Day 2 thus far, and nobody has more chips than Czech star Daniel Budin. He finished his flight with an incredible 27,291,741 chips and $368 worth of bounties. Only Joshua North of the United Kingdom (22,862,633) has at least 20 million chips from their one million starting stack.

Place | Player | Country | Bounties | Chips
1 | Daniel Budin | Czech Republic | $368 | 27,291,741
2 | Joshua North | United Kingdom | $437 | 22,862,633
3 | Kevin Bergeron | Canada | $255 | 18,975,971
4 | Jacob Stone | United Kingdom | $218 | 18,381,293
5 | Kim Kock | Denmark | $318 | 17,938,044
6 | Bengt Loof | Sweden | $150 | 17,906,741
7 | Daniel Weiss | Germany | $187 | 17,893,065
8 | Alex Basford | United Kingdom | $281 | 16,414,880

10 | Daniel Wilson | United Kingdom | $181 | 16,206,412
