After three long weeks of intense action, it's time for the GG Spring Festival to come to a close, and one of the final big events that will wrap today is GGSF Main Event-H: $1,500 PLO-NL, $2M GTD [Day 2]. For those wondering about the PLO-NL game format, it simply refers to the difference between preflop play (pot-limit) and postflop play (no-limit).
This event sports a $2 million guarantee and a slew of Day 1 flights, with several still running or scheduled at the time of writing. That should allow the field, currently at 1,261, to get closer to 1,500.
Stacks coming to Day 2 range from barely above the starting stack (122K) to more than 20 starting stacks — "BIG HAI" leads the way with a little over 2.3 million. Some players who have already advanced include Ami Barer, Francois Billard, Niklas Astedt, George Wolff, Dario Sammartino, Eoghan "DrRoche" O'Dea, Sami Kelopuro and Eelis Parssinen.
Action kicks off just after 4 p.m. EDT with 700/1,400/1,750. Stay tuned to PokerNews to see who scoops the lion's share of this seven-figure prize pool.
