Welcome to Day 1a of Parx Big Stax 1100
For the third weekend in a row, Parx will host one of its marquee Big Stax events in the Philadelphia area. This time, it's the final and biggest event, the Big Stax 1100.
Big Stax 1100 features two starting flights, the first of which is scheduled to kick off at 11 a.m. on Friday morning. Each player receives 50,000 in starting chips with opening blinds of 100/100. Each level thereafter will sport an ante equal to the size of the big blind, paid by the big blind. Day 1 plays through Level 15 (2,000/4,000/4,000), with each level lasting 45 minutes.
The tournament is eight-handed and offers players unlimited reentry throughout the day and into the early portion of Day 2.
Just a few months back, Andrew Ostapchenko claimed just a little shy of $100,000 in the Big Stax 1100, so expect another quality prize pool to be generated here at one of the East Coast's premier poker venues.
