Day 1c of the MSPT Season 15 Sycuan Showdown Series $1,110 Main Event is in the books after drawing 136 entries, the biggest field of all three starting flights, bringing the overall field up to 313.

At the end of the third and final flight, 16 players bagged and tagged with Bret Eberhart sitting atop the counts.

After making deep runs in the first two flights, Eberhart was able to make this one count as he was able to spin-up a 700,000 stack, good enough for the overall chip lead.

The final level of the evening saw an onslaught of casualties which included two-time MSPT champ Ken Baime, Nabor Delgado and DJ Buckley.

Others to bag big stacks where Brad Gafford (454,000), Jason Brown (445,000), Taylor Bell (376,000), & Michael Souza (306,000), as they were rounded out the top five stacks.

They were joined by Ninos Odisho (284,000), Jon “Cosmos” McGowan (280,000), MSPT Hall of Famer Umut Ozturk (226,000), Daria Ivantey (176,000), and Fadi Moshi (155,000).

The surviving players from all three flights – of which there are 37 (8 from Day 1a, 13 from 1b, and 16 from 1c) – will return at 11:00 a.m. local time on Sunday, May 5th to play down to a winner.

The MSPT live reporting crew will be on the floor throughout the remainder of the tournament to provide updates, so keep it here to catch the action!
