Day 1b of CPPT $1,650 Main Event Starts at 11 a.m.
Welcome to Day 1b of the CPPT $1,650 No-Limit Hold em tournament. The World Cup of Cards at Playground Poker Club welcomes its fourth poker tour host. The Card Player Poker Tour and a three day event with a $400,000 Guarantee. Just like yesterday's flight, the tournament field will play 14 45-minute levels. Thirty two players bagged last night and Jean Sebastien Dubois was the leader with 439,000.
The tournament is the second largest starting flight buy-in of the WCC tournament series. There have been multiple satellites and several of the Playground Poker Club regulars are expected to be in the field. The CPPT also offers a chance for some of the tournament leaderboard chasers to gain some ground on Charles La Boissonniere who leads Jason Conforti and Joey Boczek for the $8,000 Carribean Poker Party Package. Conforti and La Boissonniere both played Day 1a and Boczek is expected in the field today as well. It should be a tight race as the series draws to a close.
