Roman Sembratovych opened for 50,000 and was called by Justin Kean before Neil Hackman jacked it up to 265,000. Sembratovych called and Hackman folded.

Hackman fired out for 225,000 on the jack-six-king flop. Sembratovych jammed for a bit more and Hackman called off his stack of around 600,000.

Hackman flopped top pair but needed a pair of runners to pull ahead of Sembratovych's set. Blanks came the rest of the way and Sembratovych took the chip lead after the hand, while Hackman hit the shower.

Samuel Deering was the previous chip leader and isn't that far behind Sembratovych. Both these players combined are still behind the Day 1a chip leader W. M., who bagged a whopping 3.9 million in chips.

Roman Sembratovych - 1.6 million
Samuel Deering - 1.5 million
