Day 1c of the Mid-States Poker Tour (MSPT) JACK Cleveland $1,110 Main Event attracted another 239 runners, which, along with 1a's 165 and 1b’s 198, brought the field total up to 602 entries.

After a double elimination, the hard was reached with 34:30 remaining in the final level and just players 27 survived the final flight with Maros Lechman bagging the top stack of 630,000.

Following hot on Lechman’s tail was Mitch Milheimi who ended with 590,000 while Richard Roberts Jr (489,000), Satoshi Tanaka (464,000), and Atif Chaudry (424,000) were the last to break the 400k mark and rounded out the top five stacks.

They were joined by MSPT Hall of Famer Josh Reichard (351,000), MSPT Season 14 Player of the Year Umut Ozturk (336,000), MSPT champ Chris Moon (241,000), BrianXXX Patterson (212,000), and Thomas Carlin (174,000).

Among previous MSPT Main Event champs who fell short one Day 1c included Mike O’Neill, Satish Thakur, and Jon Kim.

Day 2 will get underway at 11:15 a.m. local time and play to a winner with 69 players (19 from Day 1a, 23 from 1b, and 27 from 1c) returning to the felt.

The top 63 finishers will get paid at least $2,213, with the eventual winner walking away with a $122,345 first-place prize.

Congratulations to everyone who advance to Day 2, and we’ll see you at 11:15 a.m. for final day coverage of the MSPT $1,110 Main Event at JACK Cleveland Casino!
