The Penultimate Flight of Event #15: �550 Colossus No-Limit Hold'em Starts at Noon
Two more flights remain for Event #15: �550 Colossus No-Limit Hold'em here at the 2019 World Series of Poker Europe and King's Resort is ready to host the players for Day 1h. The penultimate starting flight will begin at 12:00 p.m. and the field is expected to be a lot larger than the previous starting flights.
So far, there are 1,377 entries out of seven starting flights, out of which just 149 have already advanced to Day 2. Besides the efforts of the players to get their hands on a share of the �1,000,000 guaranteed prize pool, there is another contest that gathers much of the attention. The 2019 WSOP Player of the Year race heats up as the end of the starting flights is near for the last event of this year's WSOPE, and so far only Shaun Deeb has managed to advance to Day 2. Daniel Negreanu is still in the lead but he didn't progress into Day 2 out of the first seven starting flights and his chances are limited with two flights remaining. This means that Deeb could threaten his first place in the leaderboard if he runs deep into the event and Negreanu doesn't gather any points.
| Flight | Entries | Advancing to Day 2 |
|---|---|---|
| Day 1a | 143 | 15 |
| Day 1b | 133 | 16 |
| Day 1c | 128 | 11 |
| Day 1d | 112 | 13 |
| Day 1e | 171 | 15 |
| Day 1f | 341 | 40 |
| Day 1g | 349 | 39 |

| Totals | 1,377 | 149 |
Day 1h will start with players finding in front of their seat a 25,000 starting stack and they will play 18 levels or until there are 12 players left, whichever comes first. Based on the field expected for today it is almost certain that there will be played 18 levels to determine the number of players that will be added to Day 2's field.
Also, the late registration will remain open for the first 12 levels of the day, and those who bust after this time-frame will have one last chance during Day 1i that starts at 18:00 p.m. as the last starting flight of the event.
PokerNews will be on stage to bring you all the updates of the last day of registrations for the Colossus event.
