After the elimination of Michal Havavka in 11th place, the 10 surviving players bagged and tagged their chips for Day 2 of WPT Prime Slovakia, which begins on Sunday at 15:00 CEST.

This flight lasted just under 12 hours, and action ended with 19:59 remaining in Level 16, with blinds at 4,000-8,000 with an 8,000 ante.

There were 78 entries for Day 1C, increasing the total field size to 268, which means we are more than halfway toward the guaranteed prizepool of €500,000. There will be two more flights tomorrow (13:00 and 18:00) and Turbo Flight 1F on Sunday morning at 10:00. Each starting flight will play as long as it takes to reach the final 12.5%, which is also the Money Bubble.
