Over the course of two starting flights, 7,361 entries took to the felt each with the hope of banking a seven-figure payday in Event #12: $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em MILLIONAIRE MAKER at the 2018 World Series of Poker. The 1,104 players who will return for Day 2 action at 11:00 a.m. local time at the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino are already guaranteed at least $2,249 apiece for their efforts so far.

Andrea Buonocore is at the head of the pack with 209,900 chips, and close behind are Kyle Hartree (208,500), Thanh Nguyen (199,500), Artan Dedusha (191,600), and bracelet winner Jared Jaffee (171,900).

Numerous notable names advanced alongside the chip leaders, including Anthony Spinella (162,500), Joseph Cheong (133,700), Chase Bianchi (117,000), Jared Bleznick (108,500), Eric Baldwin (65,700), Joe Cada (42,400), Tony Dunst (41,500), and Jeff Gross (22,000).

Play will resume with just over 24 minutes remaining on the clock in Level 11 with blinds at 500/1,000 with a 100-chip ante. The plan for Day 2 is to play 10 levels with 15-minute breaks every two levels and a one-hour dinner break after six levels (at approximately 6:30 p.m.). The remainder of the field is scheduled to play 10 more levels on Day 3 and the eventual winner will be crowned on Day 4.
