By the Numbers
It's officially official.
As it turns out, yesterday's Day 1a drew 328 runners, two less than we were led to believe. That's okay though, as today's Day 1b has drawn another 373 players to the felt to fill out this field. That puts the total number of entrants at a very respectable 701. The staff is calculating the prize pool right now, but we'd expect they'll be paying 104 spots with a first-place prize of right around $750,000. We'll have the full numbers as soon as they're verified.
