$175 No Limit Hold'em | $100,000 GTD
Level 1 (Blinds 25/50)
Total Flight 1C Entries: 25
Tournament Supervisor Adam Kemper is once again going over the rules announcement, this time for the players in this afternoon's Flight 1C field. Yesterday's opening pair of flights attracted a total of (210) entries, many of which were notables names to the Isle Poker Room. From the total number, (32) players were able to bag chips for Sunday's Day 2, led by Sean Jones (303,000) from Flight 1B, and Darcy Deconza (234,500) from Flight 1A. Jones and Deconza both earned seats into Event #15 of the Isle Open ($1,100 No Limit Hold'em | $150,000 GTD), courtesy of the "chip lead bonus" from each flight.
There are still six more seats to be awarded over the next three days, starting with the chip leader from this afternoon's flight. The structure mirrors yesterday's action, with players sitting down to starting stacks of 20,000 units, and playing levels of (25) minutes over the course of the flight. Play is scheduled to conclude after (16) completed levels, but if the field reaches the 10% number, then the clock will pause and the bagging process will begin. That is exactly what happened last night in Flight 1B, with the action stopping with just over three minutes in Level 15. Therefore, Day 2 will now begin at that point, meaning the big stacks begin the day even deeper planned (along with the shorter stacks as well, which is even more important to those players).
Live coverage of Flight 1C will continue throughout the afternoon, updating followers on all of the action, including the "race for the chip lead bonus." The official counts from the opening pair of flights, along with a reminder of the new Twitter handle (@PokerIslePP) will be posted, before we shift our focus onto the notables in today's flight.
