    Trevor Dixon has jumped out to a commanding chip lead in the Megastack. As the players return from their first break of the afternoon, Dixon is playing nearly triple the chip average as one of only two players with a six-figure stack.

    As the timer ticked down on the late registration and re-entry period, several of players made late entrances and threw their hats in the ring to bring the total number of entries up to 86. To everyone’s surprise, the number of re-entries made it in to double digits and helped bring the prize pool over the $8,000 mark.

    Aided by five re-entries, the Megastack has already beaten the prize pool guarantee by a healthy margin as of the fifth level of play. Nobody wants to miss out on this one so everyone elimination has quickly brought about a re-entry.

    There remains roughly 30 minutes in the late registration and re-entry period so we may still see a few players fire multiple bullets, but given the depth of the starting stacks it would be a surprise to see the number of re-entries hit double digits.

    Aside from the guaranteed prize pool, the most appealing element of this tournament is the endless possibilities permitted by the deep starting stacks; the chip average provides over 90 big blinds, enough to call, float or bluff with reckless abandon.

    The first break in the action is just around the corner so stay tuned for a leader board update.

    The field is gaining entries steadily in the Megastack, with 51 runners so far. We have already seen a few players leave the Seniors’ Event and jump right in to the Megastack, a trend that will likely continue until the late registration period ends at 2:45pm.

    Here’s a look at the some of the players in the field:

     

    It’s time for the Megastack!

    • Level: 1
    • Small Blind: 50

    • Button Ante: 0

    • Remaining: 23

    The October Power Weekend is picking up pace today with two tournaments the afternoon. The Seniors’ Event is already underway, and the stage is set for Event #6, the $100 + $10 Megastack Turbo Re-entry.

    The Megastack provides a massive 50,000 chip starting stack and guarantees a prize pool of at least $5,000. This event also permits unlimited re-entries until the beginning of the seventh level of play so expect the players to come out firing. The deep stacks and the re-entry format are sure to make for some interesting dynamics in the early levels; everyone will have enough chips to take any line they please, especially with the knowledge that unlimited re-entries are available.

    The players have just taken their seat, and the cards are in the air. Good luck to all!
