Although new players joined Day 1E at a slower rate during the last two levels, there remains a huge field of 246 players left in contention. The wild action seen before the first break has given way to a steadier tournament grind, even though we are still seeing more multi-way pots than one might expect; the players are considering each decision carefully and only very strong hands are being seen at showdown.

The late registration and re-entry period is winding down, but a handful more entries are likely to join this flight before time runs out. The next break is only a few minutes away, stay tuned for a leaderboard update.
