According to updates from the event, 72 players advanced to Day 2 with 48 of those making the money.

In the final hand of the tournament, Moses had pulled out to a slight lead in the heads-up match. In Level 31 (100,000/150,000/150,000), Zaki raised to 350,000 and Moses jammed.
“I’m leaning call,” Zaki said as he hit the tank. Eventually, he did call off his stack holding ace-eight only to see he was pipped by Moses, who held ace-nine. The board ran out ten-high meaning the kicker came into play and Zaki had to settle for second place and a $104,750 consolation prize.
