There are a total of three events in this collaboration between RunGood and the Caribbean Poker Series, offering $175,000 in guarantees.
Today's event features a starting stack of 30,000, with blinds beginning at 100/200, with a 200 big blind ante. Levels are 25 minutes in length today, with 10-minute breaks every four levels. Registration and unlimited re-entry is available until the start of Level 9 around 7:40 p.m.
Just the top 10% of the field will be in the money, and each starting flight will play down to 5% of the field before bagging up for Sunday's Day 2. An additional two flights are on Friday, and a final one on Saturday.
