In just minutes, Day 1c of the 2016 partypoker.net WPT Montreal will start begin here at Playground Poker Club. This is the final starting flight in the event, meaning that it’s everyone’s last opportunity to try and qualify for Day 2 in the WPT.
So far, 135 players have qualified from a total of 348 total entries to date. History suggests, however, that Day 1c will be much larger than the other two starting days – and it’s possible that there will be as many entries today as in both starting flights so far.
Play today will continue for 10 levels of 60 minutes each, with breaks following every 2nd level. The break following level 6 will be a 45-minute long dinner break with a buffet provided to all players. The end of the dinner break will also signal the end of late registration, following which we’ll have an official count of the total entires in the event and, not long following, we’ll publish the prize pool and payout structures.
All of that is hours in the future! For now, players are lining up at the cashier to purchase their seating tickets and in a few minutes they’ll be admitted to the Tournament Hall for the introductory announcements and the beginning of play.
Good Luck!
