Day 1e Ready To Go

The fifth of six starting flights for Event #5, a $50 buy-in No-Limit Hold'em tournament, will begin at 11 a.m. this morning.

This is the final day to get into the event with the sixth starting flight also set for 7 p.m. this evening. The first four played out Monday and Tuesday with 561 total entries and 67 survivors, putting the event well on its way to smashing its $25,000 Guarantee.

Players get 10,000 in tournament chips and will play 15 20-minute levels or until just 12 percent of the total entries remain.

Unlimited re-entries are permitted up until the start of the 13th level and players can jump in as many starting flights as they like, carrying the biggest stack forward to the final day.

The affordable buy-in and re-entry format was designed to attract both veteran rounders and recreational players and has done so thus far with field sizes growing by the session. Being the last day to build a stack for Day 2, these sessions promise to be the busiest of the bunch.
