With the late registration period now closed, the total prizepool and payouts have been confirmed. The 194 strong field narrowly failed to meet the $100,000 guarantee, handing those who chose to enter a little extra value. The top 29 finishers will get a portion of that pot, with everyone who finishes in the money guaranteed at least $988 while the eventual winner will walk away with $19,663.
Blinds: 350/700
