Although the $135 + $15 No Limit Hold’em Re-entry format is the usual – and very popular – way that we kick off major tournament series’ at Playground, this is the first time we have run the event with four Day 1s.
So far the event has been a hit – and we surpassed the guarantee last night – so the extra Day 1 being played tonight will do two things: a) give players an additional chance to qualify for Day 2, and b) pump up the prize pool so we’ll be able to pay out more money to more players when the whole affair comes to a conclusion on Monday night.
As the tournament is about to start there are already 272 registrants with a published cap of 350 and late registration open until about 10:10pm tonight.
Good luck to all!
