Kings Casino havde rigtigt mange spillere på besøg som man kan se på artikel billedet, og fredag 13 oktober 2017 blev den første startdag 1A spillet af deres €1.500 + €150 WSOPC Main Event. Main Event fik samlet 174 spillere der efterfølgende lavede 24x re-entry i perioden hvor dette var muligt, og da alle levels var spillet til ende, så var der 72 spillere tilbage.
Spillerne fik 30.000 chips i startdag og den tjekkiske spiller Petr Šetka fik sin stack spillet op i 219.400 chips og er chipleader inden dag 1B. 1stpoker kan ikke se nogle Danskere på denne liste, men vi kan da håbe de dukker op en af dagene frem mod afslutningen.
