Day 1a is in the books and so far 52 players have qualified for Day 2 of the Main Event of the Playground Winter Festival. Today is Day 1b – the second and final starting flight in the Main Event. We’re expecting that many more players will be joining the action today, including many players playing for the first time but also a substantial number of players who will be firing their second bullet in this re-entry event.
With 179 entries yesterday and a $500K guarantee, this tournament is officially in “overlay zone” – which means there’s a chance that the number of entries won’t meet the guaranteed prize pool. In effect, if this happens it’s free money for players – and underlines the huge amount of value in this tournament.
