$360 NLH $100,000 GTD (Flight 1B): Second Opening Flight Underway, Weekend Expected To Attract Some Larger Numbers
$360 No Limit Hold'em ($100,000 GTD)
Level 1 (Blinds 100/100)Total Flight 1B Entries: N/A
Flight 1B Players Remaining: N/A
The $360 No Limit Hold'em ($100,000 GTD) may have gotten off to a slow start yesterday (28 total entries), but there is nothing to worry about, as the five weekend flights are sure to bring in the big numbers. Yesterday's Flight 1A saw four players "reach the money," three of which bagged chips for Monday's Day 2. Devon Marshall (Miami, FL) was the lone player to receive a Day 1 payout, walking away with $550. Engelberth Valera (Coral Springs, FL) bagged the flight's chip lead, and has set the mark for others to reach, at 275,000.
A new group of players have taken their seats in the tournament area, as Flight 1B saw it's first hand dealt just moments ago. Today's flight (along with the four that will follow over the next three days) is structured with 20,000 unit starting stacks, and will have levels that last (30) minutes over the course of the event. Registration for each flight is open through Level 8, and continues to stay open through the ten minute break that follows. Each of the starting flights will play down to 8% of the field, with 12.5% making the money on Day 1. That is the one change in this particular event, from prior tournaments that used the same structure, as those events played down to 5%. Players were very vocal about the length of time that those flights took to get down to 5%, so that number was raised to 8%. Things should not take entirely as long, making this tournament's structure more "player-friendly." For example, yesterday's Flight 1A ended in Level 13, and lasted less than eight hours. Now the same thing shouldn't be expected from these larger weekend flights, but it's unlikely we will see any of the starting flights play longer than ten hours.
Just like yesterday, official numbers from both of today's flights will be posted on the blog, along with official Day 1 payouts (and end of day chip counts).
Friday, September 7th: As The Weekend Begins, Big Numbers Expected To Roll In For $360 NLH ($100,000 GTD)
ICYMI: Yesterday's opening flight of the $360 No Limit Hold'em ($100,000 GTD) was an "intimate" one, as registration for Flight 1A would close with a total of (28) entries. Once the numbers were made official, the players that still remained would learn that (4) players would reach the money, three of which would bag chips for Day 2. Devon Marshall (Miami, FL) ended up "bubbling" the bagging process, but did receive $550 for being the "fourth place finisher" in the flight. The final three Flight 1A players then packed up their chips for Monday's Day 2, with the official chip counts listed below:
Engelberth Valera - 275,000
Shannon Man - 153,500
Eric Kolodny - 145,500
After one starting flight, which attracted (28) entries, the $360 No Limit Hold'em's ($100,000 GTD) prize pool currently sits at $8,400. There are still five starting flights remaining, with the numbers expected to grow exponentially over the next three days.
Tournaments: Friday's tournament schedule hosts the second pair of starting flights for the $360 No Limit Hold'em ($100,000 GTD), as well as another satellite to get into the tournament. Flight 1B begins at 11:00am, and is structured with 20,000 unit starting stacks, along with levels that will last (30) minutes throughout the tournament. Registration is open through Level 8, and will stay open during the ten minute break that follows the level. The "Day 1 payouts" return, with 12.5% of each opening flight reaching the money, and 8% reaching Day 2. That is the big change in the structure, as events that used this structure in the past (FSPC Event #4 and CPPT Event #1) played down to 5%. Players thought that things lasted too long, so the switch was made, which should keep from the starting flights lasting as long as they did. Players that bag chips in the flight, will return Monday (September 10th), to finish things out on Day 2.
The day's only satellite gets underway at 2:00pm, and is a $90 No Limit Hold'em Satellite, which guarantees (5) seats into the $360 No Limit Hold'em ($100,000 GTD). The satellite is structured with 10,000 unit starting stacks, (20) minute levels, and registration that's open until the beginning of Level 9.
The day's "schedule sandwich" is then completed at 6:00pm, by Flight 1C of the $360 No Limit Hold'em ($100,000 GTD). Flight 1C's structure mirrors that of Flight 1B, with all of the pertinent rules listed above.

Promotions: From (9:00am-10:00am), the high hand will award $150 every (30) minutes. The high hands will then transition from 10:00am-12:00am (midnight), with the opportunity to win $400 every (30) minutes. During that period, the promotion sees tournament players eligible each half-hour for $100 high hands, 2/2 limit hold'em players eligible for $200 high hands, 2/4 limit hold'em players eligible for $300 high hands, and all other raked games (1/2-5/10 NLH, 4/8 Omaha 8B, 6/12 O.E., etc.) eligible for $400 high hands. From 12:00am-9:00am, players are eligible for $100 high hands every hour.
It should also be noted that players are able to win the high hand using only one card in their hand. The payouts for those that use one card are different than the standard numbers listed above, and can be found (full listing of one-card payouts on flyers in the poker room).
