This past Saturday brought Day 1c of the MECG $100,000 Deep Stack event, planned to be the flagship tournament of Season 2 of the Windy City Poker Championship. Like Day 1b, 1c featured ten players, three of whom advanced. At the top of the heap was bed-wetting, failed businessman Kelly Dietrich. Just listen to the insecurity in his voice as you view the video below. The three advancers were:
| Position | Player | Chip Count |
| 2 | Kelly Dietrich | 134,900 |
| 9 | Ruben Juarez | 42,800 |
| 13 | Leonid Sagalorsky | 22,300 |
Day 1d will be this weekend at the Irish American Heritage Center, and will potentially be the last Day 1 flight with Chicago city limits.
