Welcome to Day 1b of Event 8: $250,000 Guarantee Deeper Stack No-Limit Hold'em Re-Entry
Good morning from PokerNews and welcome back to our coverage of the 2014 Borgata Winter Poker Open. Around 300 players look to have filled into the event center so far for the second flight of the $250,000 Guarantee Deeper Stack No-Limit Hold'em Re-Entry.
Fifty-six players survived the first flight to bag some chips, so we expect right around that same number at the end of the 16 levels that will be played today before we start all over for Day 1c at 7 p.m. Players will begin with 30,000 chips and the blinds at 25-50.
