581 Entrants on Day 1a; 105 Players Advancing to Day 2
Level 10
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Late registration closed at the end of Level 9, with 581 entrants recorded—nearly 150 more than last year’s Day 1a.
The day was originally scheduled to end when 21% of the field remained. However, due to the large turnout, it was decided to conclude the day with 18% of the remaining field instead. In other words, 105 players will advance to Day 2 tonight.
