The first of three flights is in the books, and we are now an hour away from the second opening flight for the $360 No Limit Hold'em ($50,000 GTD).  The cards just got in the air for Flight 1B, with registration open through Level 8, which allows 4.5 hours for players to join the action.  A total of (5) players bagged Day 2 chips from the (40) entry Flight 1A field, led by Cory Williams (212,500).  

Flight 1B players will work with the same structure as yesterday, with starting stacks of 20,000 units, and levels that last (30) minutes (those levels will transition to 40 minutes on Day 2).  Play is scheduled to conclude after Level 16, but as we saw yesterday, things could end early (if the field reached the 10% mark.

Official chip counts from the flight will be posted after it's conclusion, with live blogged coverage returning on Sunday, for the Day 2 action.
