Last Day to Book a Seat into Day 2 of 1M GTD Mystery Bounty
The penultimate flight will be starting shortly here at The Lodge Poker Club in Round Rock, Texas. There has been a total of 317 entry slips sold thus far in Event 6: $1,600 Mystery Bounty $1 Million Guaranteed with today looking to over double that number alone during the last two flights.
Elliot Smith is in front of the 48 current survivors for Day 2, having 756,500 in chips after finding some steam late on Day 1e. Closest behind the Canadian is Michael Reisman who topped Day 1f with 717,000 and is the only other player that has breached the 600,000 mark.
All registrants will sit down to 40,000 in chips for the first day and will play down until just 12% of the field is left standing. There will be unlimited re-entries until the start of Level 7 for anyone who takes an unlucky exit or wants to jump in for the first time. Blinds will begin at 100/200 with 40-minutes to play each level.
All survivors of the Day 1 flights will return on Sunday, May 15, to battle it out for a shot at the title. Anyone who bags more than once will get a bounty chip for each extra bag, playing their highest-valued stack moving forward. Each bounty can be redeemed on the second day for an envelope that contains a prize that ranges from $1,000 all the way up to the $100,000 first-place prize.
