The Numbers Continue to Climb

Level 7 : 300/600, 75 ante

We've topped 700 entrants and with a registration line that is 50 players deep and approximately one hour left to register, those numbers are sure to climb - it wouldn't be a surprise to see a number well above 800. Among players we noticed in our run through of the tournament were Megan Milburn, Joe Boatwright, Luke Edwards, Joe Galazzo, Chris Tryba, and Papa Levy.
