The final day of qualifying for Day 2 of Event #2: $200 No-Limit Hold'em is upon the poker community at the Seneca Niagara poker room. Day 1c action will get underway on Saturday morning with a guaranteed prize pool of $50,000 up for grabs. Day 1d will see cards get in the air at 10 a.m.

Players will start with 15,000 in chips and play 30-minute blind levels. Late registration and unlimited re-entry are available until the start of Level 9. Players may fire more than one flight with only their largest stack moving forward to Day 2.

With the 134 entries received on Day 1a and 151 total entries gathered on Day 1b, the $50,000 guarantee has almost been met with $46,028 already in the prize pool. So far, just 39 players have booked their seat on Day 2 with the two flights to play out on Saturday.

The player with the largest stack heading to Day 2 is Day 1a chipleader, Andy Spears, with 326,200.

There will be one more flight Saturday evening for any player unable to gain any traction. Day 1d is set for 6 p.m. with the surviving field converging on Sunday where they will play down to a winner.

At the 2017 Summer Slam, a total of 520 entries were received.Jeff Roth took home the top honors after multiple deals chopped up the prize pool at the final table. Roth cashed for $8,992 and took home the trophy after the play ended four-handed with him in the lead.
