Welcome to Day 1b of the 2019 World Series of Poker Circuit Horseshoe Southern Indiana Main Event!
The second and final flight of the 2019 World Series of Poker Circuit Horseshoe Southern Indiana $1,700 Main Event kicks off at 11 a.m. local time, and Day 1b hopefuls will be attempting to join the 30 players who made it through yesterday's Day 1a flight.
Robert James managed to bag up an impressive 414,500 in chips to lead the way, while Alexander Fininzio (364,500) and Richard Langdon (296,000) also bagged big stacks. The trio is joined in part by WSOP Bracelet winners Kyle Cartwright (180,000) and Alan Percal (172,000), and WSOPC Ameristar St. Charles Casino Champ Jerod Smith (106,500).
Day 1b is set to kick off at 11 a.m. local time, and features fifteen forty-minute levels. Blinds start off at 100/100 for the Main Event, and players begin with 30,000 in tournament chips, with big blind ante kicking in at Level 2. Players will receive a fifteen-minute break after Levels 3, 6 and 12 and a sixty-minute dinner break after Level 9. Registration will remain open through the beginning of Level 13 (approximately 8:45 p.m. local time), and a single re-entry is available to players.
James Pupillo, who finished fourth at the WSOPC Potawatomi $1,700 Main Event two weeks ago for a career-best $46,017, was spotted in action last night and will likely be in attendance today. We also expect Nick Pupillo, Ravi Raghavan, Alan Cutler and many more to join the crowd today and make one more attempt at advancing to Day 2.
