Welcome to Day 1b of Event #8: $1,000 No Limit Hold'em PA Championship
Event #8: $1,000 No Limit Hold'em PA Championship continues today with the second of three starting flights, kicking off at 5:30 p.m. EST. Today's players will be looking to join the 18 players who qualified in yesterday's Day 1a flight, and the stack to beat so far is one held by "fun_game", who managed to bag up 138,081 for Day 2.
Players who enter today's tournament must be geolocated in the state of Pennsylvania to be able to play. Players will start with 15,000 in tournament chips, and may rebuy up to three times during the late registration period of 150 minutes. Levels will be 12 minutes in length on all Day 1 flights, then extend to 15 minutes for Day 2. Play will conclude for the day once either 17 levels have been played, or if 26% of the field is remaining, whatever comes first.
This Day 1b flight will be running at the same time as Event #7: $600 No Limit Hold'em Monster Stack (which will have full coverage on the link provided). A third and final flight is available on Sunday, August 15th, for players looking for one last chance to bag to Day 2.
PokerNews will provide end-of-day chip counts from the first two flights of this event, then provide full coverage for Day 1c and Day 2. Be sure to check out the full chip counts from the starting flights, and we'll see you on Sunday, August 15th for Day 1c coverage from the Main Event!
