Isle Open Event 15 (Day 1B): Day 1B Action Of Event #15 Underway Shortly

2017 Isle Open | Event #15
$1,100 No Limit Hold'em | $150,000 GTD
Level 1 (Blinds 25/50)
Total Day 1B Entries: N/A



The second starting flight of Event #15 ($1,100 No Limit Hold'em | $150,000 GTD) gets underway at 11:00am, as new group of players try and join the group from yesterday, already haven booked tickets to tomorrow's Day 2.  There were (17) players (from a total of 63 entries) able to bag chips after twelve levels of play yesterday, including the Day 1A chip leader, Anthony Utnage (Bloomington, IN).  Tony finished with 160,800, just a few thousand more than Brian Hastings, who will head to Day 2 with 154,700.

Players in today's starting flight will sit down to 20,000 units, and will play (40) minute levels for a good portion of the day.  Once the remaining players return from dinner break (after Level 9), play will transition to (50) minute levels, and continue that way through the tournament's conclusion.  The bagging process begins after Level 12, at which point the flight's chip leader will be awarded a seat into next week's $1,500 No Limit Hold'em Isle Open Main Event ($500,000 GTD).  

The cards will be in the air for Day 1B of Event #15 after Ralph Brandt goes through the rules announcement, with live blogged coverage giving followers a look into the action over the course of the afternoon/evening.
