Main Event Day 1C Underway

by Tricia David • May 20, 2026 - 3:35 AM

Cards are now flying at Day 1C of the Main Event! Today's flight will run two registration levels of 120 minutes each, closing at the start of Level 3 at exactly 5:00 PM.

For those that sign up in the first level, you begin with a deep 120,000 = 120 big blinds and 20 time banks. Keep in mind, there will be no reload on time banks, that's all you'll receive for the rest of the event so manage your time wisely!

For those that sign up at the second level, you enter with 60 big blinds and 17 time banks, and for those that choose to max-reg. once registration closes you still have a healthy 30 big blind stack and 14 time banks.

Currently, the Main Event has drawn 68 entries with 10 players through to the ITM stage and are now guaranteed a share of the KRW 700,000,000 (~USD 480,000) guarantee and a shot at the Black-and-Gold Gauntlet. The player to measure up to is Kyung Min Lee who bagged a massive 1,729,000.

To claim a share of the pot, players need to survive the flight bubble which is at 13.5% of the field.

With action underway, stay tuned for live updates which begins once registration closes.
