Day 1b of the BOM Main Event has now gone on its first scheduled break of the day. The field has now grown to 151, of which 141 are still commanding chip stacks. With Day 1a’s 146 entries already surpassed, how many entries will the flight end up with? Registration is open until the end of level 10, which means the last chance to buy-in for the flight is at about 9.30pm.

We’ll find out shortly who’s got the chip lead, but we’ll spare the chip chump the embarrassment of being named.

Meanwhile, Day 1c of the Mystery Siege of Malta has just moved into level 9 and has had 249 entrants so far, taking the total number of entries up to 580, with two levels left for any stragglers to join the action.
