Event #10 | $560 NLH Single-Ante ($50,000 GTD)
Level 1 (Blinds 100/100)
Total Event #10 Entries: N/A
The single-ante action gets a little larger this afternoon, as players arrive for Event #10 of the 2018 Battles At The Beach, a $560 No Limit Hold'em tournament with a $50,000 guaranteed prize pool. The single-ante format (where the big blind antes for the table) was instituted back in August of last year, for a $2,500 No Limit Hold'em event, that originally catered to the larger buy-in players. The reception from the players was so overwhelming, that the format would be used for other tournaments, ranging from $175 to $1,100.
This afternoon's event is the first time we are seeing the $560 prize point for a single-ante tournament, so it will be interesting to see what the numbers grow to. There will be at least $50,000 in the prize pool, as that is the event's posted number, but it would not come as a surprise if it grows higher. The tournament is structured with starting stacks of 75,000 units, and levels that last (30) minutes over the course of the day. Registration is "extended" through Level 10, meaning that players wanting to join the action have until 4:30pm to enter.
Updates will be posted throughout the day, including real-time results, once the tournament reaches the money.
