ICYMI: For some tournaments, having a flight cancelled during the second-to-last day of play, may have thrown a wrench into the festivities.  That wasn't the case though, for the $130 No Limit Hold'em "Bankroll Builder" ($30,000 GTD), as a total of (211) entries made up yesterday's action.  Flight 1G, which got underway at 11:00am, ended up seeing registration close with (89) total entries.
