Welcome to Day 1c of the 2018 888poker LIVE Barcelona Main Event

Welcome to the third and final opening flight of the 888poker LIVE Barcelona €1,100 Main Event.

The 888poker LIVE Barcelona festival boasts a plethora of tournaments from May 24 to June 4 with a total of $1 million in guaranteed prize pools. More than half of this, or €500,000 is guaranteed for the Main Event alone.

With two days in the books, it appears likely the guarantee will be smashed. Day 1a attracted 168 entrants with 43 survivors while Day 1b attracted 214 entrants with 59 survivors.

Currently, four of the survivors have amassed at least 300,000 in chips. Day 1b chip leader Orpen Kisacikoglu, thus far leads the pack with 381,900 in chips. On his tails are Day 1a chip leader Gianny Dominique Morano with 363,000, Jhen Siang Jian with 333,500, and Joel Isla Gonzalo with 323,900.

Among the many players expected in the Day 1c field to grab the chip lead out of Kisacikoglu's hands are the many of the 888poker Ambassadors in attendance.

Players that entered previous flights can also join today's field and unlimited reentries are permitted up until the start of Day 2 on June 3. Players bagging chips and surviving tomorrow's Day 2 action will play until a champion is crowned on Day 3 on June 4.

The structure for Day 1c is identical to the two previous opening flights with players starting off with 30,000 in chips, blinds increasing every 45 minutes, and 12 blind levels.

The structure of the Main Event will be deeper on Day 2 and beyond with blinds increasing every hour.
