Event #9 | $1,100 No Limit Hold'em | $200,000 GTD
Level 1 (Blinds 100/100)
Total Flight 1B Entries: 9
For these multi-flight tournaments, things don't really "get into gear" until the weekend arrives, as the first of three weekend flights is now underway (but the second of four overall flights). Yesterday's Flight 1A attracted a total of (64) entries, with (13) players successfully bagging chips for Monday's Day 2 (12:00pm). Alan Ramkhalawn is now a name to know as remember, as he bagged the Flight 1A chip lead, and will head to Day 2 with 427,000. The official counts from Flight 1A will be posted shortly (as part of today's coverage), with notable names like Ryan Gianquitti, Matt Smith, and Erik Christensen, all getting a few days off.
The field is "intimate" to start this afternoon, but there should be no worries, as players in this price point event always like to arrive late. Today's flight is structured the same a yesterday's, with players sitting down to 30,000 unit starting stacks, and playing levels that last (40) minutes (during the opening flight, as they will transition to 50 minutes on Day 2). Registration is open throughout the day, and will stay open until the first hand is dealt on Day 2. The chip lead bonus is up for grabs once again, as players that do bag the largest stack from each opening flight, will earn a seat into next week's Event #14 ($1,500 No Limit Hold'em FSPC Main Event $500,000 GTD).
Live blogged coverage will be offered throughout today's flight, concluding with the bagging process, and official "end of Flight 1B chip counts."
