Welcome to Day 1a of the Wynn Fall Classic $3,500 Championship. Cards go in the air at 12 p.m. for the first of three opening flights in the flagship event of the Wynn Fall Classic.
Sung Joo "Arte" Hyun won the Wynn Spring Classic $3,500 Championship in March 2021, beating a field of 614 players to claim the $313,409 prize. A large field is expected this weekend to compete for the $3,000,000 guarantee.
Players will start with 40,000 in chips and play 15 40-minute levels on Day 1 or until approximately 11% of the field remains. Day 2 continues on Monday, October 31 with ten 60-minute levels and Day 3 will play on Tuesday, November 1 until there is a winner.
Late registration for each flight is available until the end of the dinner break, which concludes at the start of Level 10. Unlimited re-entry is available for both flights. Players that survive Day 1a may play Day 1b or Day 1c and their largest chip stack will advance to Day 2.
Be sure to keep it here all weekend long for updates on the action from the PokerNews live reporting team at the Wynn Fall Classic.
