Event #1 - Day 3 Archives | Page 4 of 4 | MILLIONS North America 2018

Today at 12:00pm, the first event in the MILLIONS North America – the $1,000 + $100 MILLIONS Open tournament – will begin its final phase. From a total of 1,231 entries, there are just 68 players left competing for a share of the big prizes – the tournament is already relatively deep into the money. Action will begin in level 25 – blinds 300,000/600,000 with a button ante of 600,000 and will continue all the way until the end of the event.

The tournament is relatively shallow to start Day 3, with a chip average of just 30bb – although this is heavily influenced by the fact that almost 20% of the remaining field is playing a sub-15bb stack to start the day. If history is any guide, there should be a slew of quick eliminations today that will deepen the overall tournament and move things much closer to a 40bb or greater chip average before too long.

That being said, there is no dominant leader playing a monster stack. The top 8 players by count for the restart each have more than 35M in chip, led by Anthony Ruberto with 40.175M to start the day. Also among the front-runners today are two internationally renowned stars and two local heroes. Chris Moorman and Martin Jacobson are well known throughout the poker world and have world-class resumes including a WSOP Main Event championship and the wide recognition Moorman enjoys as the #1 online tournament player of all time. Joining them near the top are Jean-Francois M, a local player with significant skills and a history of winning, and Sebastien Drolet-Poitras – known affectionately as Seabass – all 4 of these players are certain to have a big influence on the game moving forward.

Good luck to everyone left at the tables today in the MILLIONS Open!

There were 392 players that continued their journey in the MILLIONS Open today at noon in the Tournament Hall and Tournament Tent at Playground Poker Club. The money bubble was reached when 143 players remained, and when the final levels were played today, just 68 players remained. All 68 will return tomorrow (Tuesday April 24th) at 12:00pm to resume their quest for the big money in the event.
