It's All Happening

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Things are moving along at a rather brisk pace in this morning flight, so fast, in fact, it could have a major impact on the rest of the event.

They will play a full 15 levels today, or until they reach the point where just 12 percent of the field remains. Registration and re-entry is still open, but the board currently shows 129 entries, 12 per cent of which would be 16 players.

Right now there are only 25 players left, meaning they need lose only nine more and play would stop.

How this impacts the rest of the event lies in the plan for Day 2, which is to start at the earliest stopping point for all of the Day 1 flights.

Right now that sits at half way through Level 14, set on Day 1a. But a much earlier mark than that would be set if the pace keeps up today.
