The final starting flight of the $1,100 Playground1000 $1,000,000 Guaranteed event starts up at 12:00 p.m. with a turbo structure.
Players begin with 100,000 chips but will play 20-minute levels instead of the regular 60-minute structure. There will only be one 10-minute break today after Level 5, and players will complete their session after nine levels.
Day 2 will begin at 5:00 p.m. later today and will play a total of eight levels worth 60 minutes a piece.
So far, 339 players have advanced to Day 2 from the one online Day 1 and three live Day 1's. The chip leader is currently Armand 'Oyster King' King with 685,100 after leading at the end of Day 1b.
Players have the option of re-entering once today during Day 1d. Should players buy in directly to Day 2 and bust, one re-entry is permitted. The same goes for a player who advances from a Day 1 flight - just one re-entry will be permitted. All re-entries are allowed until the start of Level 12.
