- Big Stax XXIV 500 Main Event 2:30 PM
- Level 6 (250/500/50)
- Day 1C Entries: 327
- Total Entries: 830
At this point, it looks like Day 1C will bring the field over 1000 entries and 1100 still looks like a legitimate line with an hour of registration available during Day 2. Kevin Grabel grabbed a huge chip-lead in the final level of Day 1B giving the field a very tough target to shoot for in the final opening flight. Here are the Top 10 stacks:
| KEVIN | GRABEL | 718,000 |
| JOHN | WILSON | 526,500 |
| GEORGE | ALBERTO | 518,000 |
| JUDITH | BIELAN | 461,000 |
| CHRISTOPHER | LAIETA | 422,000 |
| LUCIA | ANTUNES | 401,000 |
| JAMES | GILBERT | 396,000 |
| JOHN | ERICKSON | 395,000 |
