Get Ready for Day 1b

The second starting flight of the day, which we call Day 1b, is set to begin in about ten minutes. The Day 1a field has been roped off to separate the two fields as the two tournaments will overlap for three levels or so. Think two tournaments in the same room and you'll have an idea of what's going to happen.

Any player eliminated here on Day 1a is eligible to re-enter in the new flight, as are any new players. The tournament staff have prepared dozens of tables, and it looks like this field will have no problem surpassing the 500 mark.
