Day 1 On the Horizon
Day 1 of the 2012 DeepStacks Poker Tour Mohegan Sun National Championship is set to start in around 20 minutes here in Uncasville, Connecticut. A handful of notables have already been spotted, including Ashton Griffin, Michael "The Grinder" Mizrachi, Mike Matusow, Allen "The Chainsaw" Kessler, Justin "Boosted J" Smith, and Vanessa Selbst.
Back in February, William Vogel took down the Western New York Poker Championship. He bested Lou Procopio heads up, earning $71,827.
The players will begin with 40,000 in tournament chips, and they may re-enter the tournament if they bust during the first five levels. The plan is to play ten 60-minute levels here on Day 1. Then we'll bag and tag, and do it all again tomorrow.
Be sure to stay tuned!
