Isle Classic Event #10 (Flight 1E): Cards Are In The Air For Flight 1E, Big Numbers Expected

2017 Isle Classic | Event #10
$360 No Limit Hold'em ($200,000 GTD)
Level 1 (Blinds 25/50)
Total Flight 1E Entries: N/A



Seats across the tournament area are filling up, while those already occupied are receiving their first hand of Flight 1E.  The fifth of six starting flights should bring out some large crowds, as the time runs out for players to try and bag chips for tomorrow's Day 2.  To this point, there has been a total of (352) entries, with (49) players successful in bagging chips.  That leaves the prize pool more than $90,000 away from the posted guarantee, meaning each of today's flights need at least (152) entries to avoid a potential overlay.

Today's flights are structured the same as the four that came before it, with starting stacks of 20,000 units.  Levels 1-15 will be (30) minutes, and will transition to (40) minutes Levels 16+ (which is Day 2).  The chip leader from each flight will earn a "bonus," which is entry into Event #16 ($1,100 No Limit Hold'em $50,000 Guaranteed).

Live blogged coverage will be here to update followers on all of the Flight 1E action, but before we take a look at the early notables in the field, a full list of Day 2 chip counts (combined from Flights 1A-1D) will be published.
