Day 1c of Event #9: $750K GTD NLH Fires Up Shortly
Day 1c of Event #9: $750K GTD NLH gets underway this morning at 11:00 am here at The Lodge Poker Club. This tournament has an exciting $750,000 guarantee up for grabs, and players can enter on six different flights, including another flight this evening at 5:00 pm.
Yesterday's first two flights saw 205 combined entries so far. Aden Salazar earned the spot of overall chip leader when he bagged 722,000 chips at the end of Day 1a. Benjamin Anderson led the way for Day 1b bagging an impressive 592,000 himself.
The $800 entry gets you a 30,000 chip stack. Levels are 30 minutes long on Day 1 and 40 minutes on Day 2. The second day will be held on Wednesday, May 18 when all players from Day 1 flights combine to battle for the win. Late registration is open until the start of Level 9 for each flight.
Each Day 1 flight works the same way; players will play to the final 12% of the field, and all those players will bag chips for Day 2 and be in the money.
PokerNews will be here to cover every flight, so tune in for up-to-the-minute coverage.
