Welcome to Day 1c of 2019 HPT Ameristar East Chicago Main Event
The halfway point has been reached out of the starting days at Heartland Poker Tour Ameristar East Chicago $1,650 Main Event, with two starting flights down and two remaining.
Through the first two flights, 36 players are in the bag and set for the Monday restart. The likes of Nadya Magnus and Craig Casino lead the way thus far, the former bagging nearly 500,000 off of the 30,000 starting stack after a huge performance in Day 1b.
As for who will join them, that's to be determined in part of the course of the 15 40-minute levels scheduled for Day 1c. Once again, it will be unlimited reentry with levels rising from 100/100 at the beginning to 2,000/4,000 at the end with a 4,000 big blind ante.
PokerNews will be on the floor providing live updates from the time of the first card pitched to the time of the last bag being sealed up.
