Event 8 ($1,500 No Limit Hold'em Main Event $500,000 GTD)
Level 1 (Blinds 50/100)
Total Entries: 24
Tournament Director Ralph Brandt only has a few more rules announcement remaining, as we've reached the Battles At The Beach $1,500 Main Event. All of the hype and excitement has been leading up to this tournament, the "big daddy" so to say. This Main Event has the largest guarantee of the series ($500,000), and offers up one of the best structures you'll find for an event anywhere in the state.
Players start with 30,000 in chips, and play Day 1's with (50) minute levels, eventually transitioning to hour long levels on Day 2 (and beyond). Each starting flight is scheduled to play (12) levels, unless the field gets down to 10%. Registration is open throughout the day, including up until the moment the cards are in the air for Sunday's Day 2. As mentioned earlier, we already have over (50) entries won by players via satellite, so it will be interesting to see where the overall field size finishes up. As expected, the opening flight has started with an "intimate" crowd, but we will update you on players in the field as the tournament area fills up.
"Live blogged" coverage will be offered for each and every starting flight, from the moment the cards are in the air, to the moment the bagging process begins.
