Event 2 (Day 1A): Event 2 Action Underway

Event 2 ($360 No Limit Hold'em $100,000 GTD)
Level 1 (Blinds 25/50)
Total Day 1A Entries: 46
Day 1A Players Remaining: 46

It feels like the "unofficial" beginning of the Isle Poker Classic, as the "live blogging" is back in action, and cards are in the air for Day 1A of Event 2.  This "major structured" tournament is sure to attract a nice size field, with a $100,000 guarantee that will likely be window dressing once registration closes for the event on Day 2 (before the first card gets in the air).  The Day 2 open registration adds an interesting dynamic to this event, in the fact that we've seen numerous players buy into tournaments with the starting stack on Day 2, and then encounter some real success.

We don't want to get too far ahead of ourselves here though, as we have three full starting days ahead of us before Sunday's action.  In the short time since the cards got in the air, we have already spotted numerous familiar faces in the field, and will start the coverage with recognizing those players.  We will also catch you up on the Isle Poker Classic action to this point, as well as introducing some new features to blog.  Be ready to refresh those browsers throughout the day, and the 2017 Isle Poker Classic coverage is now underway!
