Day 1B in the MILLIONS North America Main Event begins today at 12:00pm. This is the second of 5 Day 1s that we’re hosting in this historic poker tournament, and if past events are any guide, the participation levels should start to increase considerably as each Day 1 arrives. Day 1A attracted 165 entries and now Day 1B should prove even more popular.
The tournament features 4 “normal” Day 1s plus a fifth Turbo Day 1, and registration is open throughout the day for each of these starting flights. In fact, players also have the option to enter or re-enter (or both) until the end of the break following level 12 on Days 2A and 2B as well – so there will be plenty of opportunity for players to find the winning formula to generate a huge stack to take to Day 3.
Action gets underway in the Tournament Hall at 12:00pm and players will each start with a 1,000,000 chip stack. Starting blinds will be 5,000/10,000 with a 5,000 button ante. Play today will continue through 8 60-minute levels with 15-minute breaks following every 2nd level. There is no dinner break today.
Best of luck to everyone playing today!
