Day 1d of the MSPT Season 16 100 GRAND STACK $1,110 Main Event at Sycuan Casino & Resort is in the books as another 148 entries were tallied bringing the total thus far to 426.

With action needing to play down to 11% of the field, almost full 16 levels were needed to hit that mark with the hard stop being reached with 10:20 remaining at 10,000/20,000/20,000 with only 16 players making it through to Day 2.

Of those 16 players, it was none other than four-time MSPT champ Dan Bekavac who found himself atop the chip counts at the end of the night bagging 2,250,000, good enough for second overall thus far.

After taking a cooler in the final level, Bekavac was able to make quick work to spin up the top stack being the only player to break the two-milly mark this flight.

Peter Cross (1,465,000), Nissar Quraishi (1,440,000), Clint Wolcyn (1,285,000), and 2023 MSPT Sycuan Regional champ Eddie Pilotin (1,125,000) rounded out the top five stacks of this flight while ’Big’ Kev Meyers (1,055,000), and David Berger (1,035,000) were the only other players to clip the milly mark.

Others who found a Day 2 berth during this flight included 2024 Sycuan champ Noel Eicher (700,000), Tim Acker (655,000), Tara Dunn (640,000), and MSPT top casher DJ Buckley (230,000) were just a few more of the players to add their names to the 29 players already on the Day 2 roster.

Among those to try and fall on Day 1c included Event #4 winner Ben Levy, Scott Aulds, Travis Tachibana, Riley Dieckhoff, and Event #2 winner Aviram Parsha, just to name a few.

All surviving players from each flight will then return at 11:00 a.m. on Monday, January 20^th to play down to a winner.
