Like the two previous starting flights, each player will begin with a stack of 20,000 chips with blinds beginning at 100/100 and an ante posted by the big blind kicking in on Level 2. Levels will last 30 minutes and play will end when 12.5% of the field remains, and those players will be in the money.
Day 1c commences today at 10 a.m. Pacific Time. Survivors of the combined three flights will battle it out on Day 2 on Sept. 26 at 11 a.m.
Players can late-register for the tournament up until the start of Level 9. At the completion of Level 8, players may forfeit their stack and re-enter for $575.
