There was huge demand for this Event #51: $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em Monster Stack, so much so that a second flight was added and players were still taking their seats for the second start at 10:30 p.m. on Thursday night.
The numbers would eventually cap out at a huge 7,862 entries which generated a staggering prize pool of $10,613,700. The winner is set to receive $1,327,083 and making the final table will guarantee a six-figure pay-day.
Today the remaining 3,826 players will take their seats in an attempt to play their way towards that goal in this five day tournament.
Pierre Calamusa is the overnight leader having bagged a staggering 243,000 chips at the close of play in Flight A. That is remarkable 79,000 ahead of his nearest rival.
There are a number of Pros still in the field, many of whom decided to register at the last minute, and some of the notables who we will be reporting on today include Jimmy Fricke (75,600), Sofia Lovgren (76,100), Ryan Riess (62,300), Humberto Brenes (47,500), Erick Lindgren (46,500) and Maria Ho (41,200).
Action resumes at 3 p.m. today with ten scheduled one-hour levels of play with no dinner break.
The PokerNews Live Reporting team will bring you all the latest news from the Monster Stack Tournament as the players return for the long march towards a million dollar pay-day and a WSOP gold bracelet.

Taylor Paur opened to 1,700 and found three callers; one of which was James Hutton in the hijack.
The dealer spread a 
flop, and a bet of 5,200 from Hutton was enough for him to capture the pot.

Chip leader Pierre Calamusa called his opponent’s bet on the turn and then led out for 3,800 on a river that brought some straight draws in. His opponent looked pretty sceptical but after some hesitation made the call. Calamusa showed him 
for the revered straight, received a, “Nice hand.” and the pot. “You said you were trying a new strategy.” Calamusa’s neighbour said. “Yeah, hitting straights” he replied.
On the next hand Calamusa raised to 1,700 and was called by the blinds. They checked it down to the river of a board reading 
. Calamus bet 2,500 and the big blind reached for calling chips but thought better of it and mucked his hand.
The strategy seems to be working so far.
