Thanks to the huge turnout of 196 entries, 28 players will advance to Day 2 from first live starting flight of the Grand Prix Canada. Everyone who advances to Day 2 will be assured of a payout of at least $400 and have the opportunity to enter as many more starting flights as they wish, should they want to try to run up a larger stack.

There are now 59 players remaining on Day 1A, and an average stack still provides about 55 big blinds, so almost everyone still involved has many options at their disposal.
