Welcome to Day 1b of the MSPT Grand Falls $1,100 Main Event
The second and final starting flight of the MSPT Grand Falls Casino $1,100 Main Event is set to get underway at 3 p.m. local time.
Day 1a drew 224 total entries and play reached a hard stop at 23:36 in the final level with 26 players remaining.
Darlo Vansurksum bagged the chip lead of the first flight and was the only person to bag over 400k (420,000). Today, another group of players will try to challenge that mark.
Other big stacks that punched their tickets to Day 2 were Todd Melander (397,000), Nicholas Smith (395,000), Luke Blindert (391,000), Graham Beynon (376,00), and Jason Crews (349,000).
Of course, not everyone was fortunate enough to make it through the night. Among those to fire and fall in Friday’s flight were MSPT Hall of Famer's Aaron Johnson and Jason Seitz, along with MSPT Champion's Rob Wazwaz, Taylor Howard, and Jonathan Kim. There's a good chance we see most of them give it another go today in the second flight.
The second starting flight will be identical to its first as the day will end once fifteen 40-minute levels are completed. All players will start with 25,000 in chips with 10-minute breaks coming after every two hours of play. All players are allowed a max of 1 re-entry per starting flight and registration will remain open until the end of Level 12.
