At the back of the Brasilia room, two stacks on the same table show early chip lead promise rivalling the others in this section of the Big 50 (like Daniel Gamer, who has around 340,000 chips). First is Rick "theclaimeer" Trigg, whose $766,000 in live winnings are dwarfed by his online earnings. A PocketFives yearly PLB winner 2014/15, he has won over $7.5 million on the virtual felt. Currently being massaged, he is sat opposite Max Brown (having moved there from his starting seat) who has 350,000 - the only one at the table who covers him.
Telfea Gray is also at Table 30, with 158,000 in chips, including a pale green 100,000 which must have been introduced during the colour up of the 500 denomination chips.

Joe Cada was a new entry into the Big 50 after the dinner break, looking to start 2019 with some of his 2018 magic, but on this occasion his run would be short lived.
From early position Cada raised to 10,000, William Claywell three-bet to 31,000 from middle position. Action folded back around to Cada who shoved his remaining stack all in for close to the starting stack of 50,000 which Claywell called.
Cada was looking for an ace or hearts as he turned over the which trailed the of Claywell. The board remained safe for Claywell when it ran out to secure him the elimination of Cada.

A late-stage triple through has given Matthew Boone’s stack a new lease of life as he enters the final level of the day. Action was opened by the under the gun player (raising to 12,000), and two seats along Boone moved all in for his last 67,000. He probably wasn’t expecting to be called in two spots before action returned to the original raiser, but that’s exactly what happened, the first player calling with 380,000 behind and the second with under 100,000.
Flop: . The larger stacked side pot player check-folded to the smaller-stacked one’s 45,000 bet, and the latter showed down . The overpair turned out not to be good; Boone turned over for a flopped set and stayed ahead over the turn and river.

Though Day 1d of the Big 50 has seemed to stay the same mammoth size over 13 50-minute levels, there is ample proof that players have been and gone in the stack of Andrei Khosh. He has nearly 800,000 in chips, which would put him in the ballpark of prior start days' leaders with half an hour of play left to go.
