At 10 a.m. local time today, Day 1e, the final flight of Event #1: $1,000 Mystery Millions shuffles up and deals here at the Horseshoe and Paris, Las Vegas. Live coverage of this event will start from Day 2.
Tournament officials have confirmed that once again, the top bounty and the first-place prize are guaranteed to be $1,000,000.
There will be 20-minute breaks every four levels, with a 75-minute dinner break at the end of Level 12 (~6:40 p.m.). Players are allowed one reentry per flight. The starting stack is 40,000 chips, with the plan for Day 1e to play 22 30-minute levels. Payouts start on Day 1, and for the surviving players, Day 2 resumes on Sunday, June 1, at 11 a.m.
