Event 2 (Day 1A): Turning Back The Clocks

Event 2 ($360 No Limit Hold'em $100,000 GTD)
Level 11 (Blinds 600/1,200/200)
Total Day 1A Entries: 155
Day 1A Players Remaining: 37

While the "slower" structure is appealing to tournament players, it doesn't make for the best "blog storylines," as notable pots are really few and far between.  What the downtime does allow for, is a look back at the last Isle Poker Classic, which was held in January of 2015.  The $350 buy-in event had a $300,000 guaranteed prize pool, and attracted 1,231 total entries (309 re-entries).  The final prize pool ended up just under $360,000, and ended up with a pretty stacked final table:
