Online Day 1C of the WPT500 was held last night on partypoker, bringing out a field of 60 entries and putting nine players into Day 2. The Day 2 qualifiers from this flight are led by Alain Medesan, who will take 522K in chips forward, good enough for the third largest stack up to this point.
Now that three of five online flights are in the books, 33 players have advanced stacks to Day 2, and the live action has yet to begin! The strong online turnout bodes well for the live flights, which start this Friday at 12:00pm when Day 1A, the first of eight live flights for this epic event, kicks off the live action.
