"$175 NLH $100,000 GTD" (Flight 1A): Action Underway For The Month's First Multi, Big Numbers Expected

$175 No Limit Hold'em
$100,000 Guaranteed
Level 1 (Blinds 25/50)
Total Flight 1A Entries: 40

It's been a while since the poker room has hosted a multi-day tournament, but now three weeks removed from the 2018 Battles At The Beach, the cards are in the air for the $175 No Limit Hold'em ($100,000 GTD).  The month's first multi (with the $1,100 No Limit Hold'em Single-Ante next week) is structured with starting stacks of 18,000 units, and levels that will last (25) minutes over the course of the event.  Registration is open through Level 8 (and the break that follows), with the day scheduled to end at the conclusion of Level 16 (or if the 10% mark is reached).  There are eight starting flights over the next four days, with an afternoon (11:00am) and evening (6:00pm) flight each day (Wednesday through Saturday).  Players that successfully bag chips for Day 2 will be returning this Sunday, with action resuming at 12:00pm.  The chip lead bonus is also back, with the top stack from each starting flight, earning a seat into next week's $1,100 No Limit Hold'em Single-Ante ($200,000 GTD).

The action has started off fast this afternoon, with forty entries in the first ten minutes alone.  Live blogged coverage will be offered throughout the rest of this flight, along with each of the afternoon flights to follow (Flight 1C, Flight 1E, and Flight 1G).  As we allow the tournament area to fill up, a quick look at next week's event will be featured during the next level's update.
