Welcome To Day 2
Day 2 await, in about an hour the tournament will start again, and 180 players will start their quest. Their quest for what you ask? Well, today isn't the day the money bubble will be reached, so it's just grinding today. Making it through the five 90-minute levels without dusting of your stack must be the main goal for the players.
Leading the charge is Albert Daher, who played about every other hand yesterday. He busted in the first level, but did much better on his second bullet. He bagged 219,200 in chips. There's a lot of players gunning for Daher's position. Sofia Lövgren, Toby Lewis, Dominik Nitsche, Sam Trickett, Simon Higgins, and many other will all try their best to gather as many chips as possible today.
Players are able to enter (and re enter once) the first level today, as long as your total amount of entries doesn't exceed four. So if you for example played Day 1a once, fired two bullets on Day 1b, and bust in the first hand today, you can still pay up $4,300 and give it one more shot.
The plan is to play five 90-minute levels, with no dinner break planned. Here's what that looks like:
| Level | Duration | Small Blind | Big Blind | Ante |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 10 | 90 minutes | 500 | 1,000 | 100 |
| 15 minutes break | ||||
| 11 | 90 minutes | 600 | 1,200 | 200 |
| 15 minutes break | ||||
| 12 | 90 minutes | 800 | 1,600 | 200 |
| 15 minutes break | ||||
| 13 | 90 minutes | 1,000 | 2,000 | 300 |
| 15 minutes break | ||||
| 14 | 90 minutes | 1,200 | 2,400 | 400 |
