$150 NLH $50,000 GTD (Flight 1C): After A Great Start To The Tournament, Friday Hosts The Second Pair Of Starting Flights (And Second Satellite)

$150 No Limit Hold'em
$50,000 GTD
Level 1 (Blinds 100/100)
Total Flight 1C Entries: N/A


We are two flights into the $150 No Limit Hold'em ($50,000 GTD) event, and things are already looking like a great success.  The first pair of starting flights attracted a total of (114) entries, of which (12) players bagged chips for Monday's Day 2.  Hal Pawluk bagged the chip lead from Flight 1A (391,000), while Armando Del Pozo led the six players that reached the Flight 1B bagging process (274,000).  The combined $12,882 prize pool from both flights is already on pace to cruise past the $50,000 posted guarantee, with this weekend's numbers expected to grow exponentially.  

Cards will be in the air shortly for Flight 1C, which carries the same structure as the two completed flights before it (and the five that will follow).  Players will sit down to starting stacks of 20,000 units, with levels throughout the event lasting (30) minutes, and registration open through Level 8.

Today's live blogged coverage will begin with an official list of chip counts from Flight 1A and Flight 1B, followed by a first look at notables in the Flight 1C field.
