Overlay at $726,300 After 135 Entries

With four flights remaining, the $1 MILLION GTD Main Event has generated $273,700 of its guarantee.

A potentially massive overlay could make the remaining flights a big opportunity for players looking to turn an $800 buy-in into a major payday.

 

In Flight 1G, 17 players will finish in the money and 11 will advance to Sunday's Day 2 restart.

Bogard Bags 1F Chip Lead

With the elimination of Scot Fahrenbruch, Bart Bogard bagged the Flight 1F chip lead with 657,000.

Bogard's bag is an overall Top 5 stack, which ties Zak Baron and narrowly beats out Nguyen Nguyen (656,000). Rajesh Marimuthu remains the overall chip leader with 764,000.

Day 2 action will resume at 1 pm this Sunday on blinds of 3K/6K-6K with 3:17 on the clock - plenty of value and play for the entire field.

Mircetic Eliminates Three in a Row

On the money bubble of Flight 1D, Nikola Mircetic eliminated Harvey Castro.

 

Facing an early position open to 12,000 on blinds of 2,500/5,000-5,000, Castro three-bet to 38,000 from the cutoff. He left himself with 500 behind.

 

Mircetic was on the button and four-bet to 73,000. The original opener folded and Castro tossed in his last chip; he was dominated.

Mircetic: A♦K♠
Castro: A♠Q♥ (all-in)
Board: T♦2♠2♦K♦7♥

Castro went unimproved on the runout and was eliminated on the money bubble.

 

About 30 minutes later, Mircetic opened to 13,000 from the lojack. Brandon Blake moved all-in for 62,000 from the hijack. Justin Smith cold-called from the small blind before Mircetic announced all-in. Smith called as the effective stack.

Mircetic: 7♥7♦
Smith: A♠Q♣ (all-in)
Blake: A♥K♣ (all-in)
Board: T♣5♠3♣J♠3♦

 

Mircetic's red sevens held on the jack-high runout. Blake and Smith were eliminated in 8th place and 7th place for $1,150 and $1,300 respectively. The remaining six players began to bag up for Sunday's 1 pm Day 2 restart.
