With the first two starting flights already delivering massive turnouts, all signs point to another packed room when Day 1c of Event #11: $25,000 Super Main Event gets underway at the World Series of Poker Paradise (WSOPP) in the Bahamas at 12:00 p.m. local time. A combined 1,550 entries have been recorded so far, putting the tournament firmly on pace to challenge its $60 million guaranteed prize pool, with multiple flights still left for players to enter.
After Day 1a and Day 1b combined for Day 2a, the field was whittled down to just 108 players who secured their spots in Day 3, setting the stage for an increasingly competitive race toward the business end of the tournament. Several big stacks emerged from the chaos of Day 2a, as the leaders positioned themselves for deep runs while others were forced back to the drawing board.
With momentum building and the field far from complete, Day 1c and Day 1d now offers another opportunity for players to jump into the action and chase a stack capable of carrying them deep into this marquee event.
