Welcome to Day 1b of the World Poker Tour (WPT) National Montreal. The $600 NL Hold'em event aligned with the World Cup of Cards hosted by Playground Poker Club in Kahnawake, Quebec boasts a $400,000 guarantee with seven starting flights. The event will run between August 19-25.
Playground has been a favorite stop for the WPT in Canada. This will be the ninth time a champion is crowned by the WPT inside Playground. Some former champions include Jonathan Roy, Jason Comtois, Amir Babakhani, Jared Mahoney, Sheraz Nasir, and Derrick Rosenbarger.
Each Day 1 will pay 12% of the starting field and play down to the final 5%. Payouts will be $750, $1,000 or $1,250 based on where a player busts. This is a re-entry event and players will have the option to re-enter on any Day 1 before registration closes at the end of the break following Level 8. Players may choose to play multiple Day 1’s even if they have previously qualified. Only a player’s best stack will carry over to Day 2, though any forfeited stack will be worth a bonus $1,500.
With 85 entries, there were just five players to qualify for Day 2 from Day 1a. Benoit Beaulac bagged the top stack collecting over 50% of the chips in play ending the day with 648,000. From just a 15,000 chip starting stack, an impressive feat to say the least.
