Day 1c was the final starting flight of the MSPT Season 16 $1,110 Main Event at the Ameristar Casino in East Chicago, and attracted a final 259 runners, which, along with the 255 totals from the previous two flights, brought the total field up to 514 entries, shattering the $300k guarantee.

The impressive field generated a $497,080 prize pool, paying out a minimum of $2,197, while the eventual winner will walk away with a $104,983 first-place prize and the final MSPT 2025 Main Event trophy!

At the end of the third and final flight, just 29 players bagged and tagged with Perrin Hendrick (666,000), edging out Yoon Kim (615,000) for the top stack of the final flight.

Rounding out the big stacks were Arnestas Armonas (565,000), Andy Tran (493,000), and Charlie Reichard (474,000).
