Event 1 (Flight 1A): Looking To Earn A Few Days Off...And A Main Event Seat

2017 "Battles At The Beach"
Event 1 ($175 No Limit Hold'em $125,000 GTD)
Level 4 (Blinds 100/200)
Total Flight 1A Entries: 75

The tournament area has seven active tables at the moment, with a surprisingly strong start to Event 1.  There have been (75) total entries to this point, already totaling over $10,000 towards what will be the combined prize pool (eight flights total).  Those players looking to have a "better" opportunity to bag a flight chip lead (and a main event seat) need to look no further than these first few opening flight.  One does not need to be a math wizard to know that the possibilities of best a field in terms of chip lead, are greater when the field size is smaller.  Proven tournament trends show that the later tournament flights attract the largest fields, and a tougher route to navigate.  

The field is full of Isle Casino Poker notables, with the first wave including:

Luiz Stadler
Paul Shafran
Waldemar Wasilewski
Dwight Pinkerton
Frank Scala
Joseph Marchese
Morris Heider
Joe Niblett
Alan Dobrow
Francois Gagne
Nancy Thomas
Thomas Gari
Daniel Genachte
