    The players in the Second Chance event are now into level 4 (blinds 100/200/a25) and there are currently 66 players of the 79 that have registered. There is still over 90 minutes to register for the event, and remember that if you register late you start with a full stack.

    Players (or potential players) should note that the schedule for this event will be modified depending on the number of players – it’s not fixed in cement, for instance, that it will play out over 3 days as scheduled. In fact, at this point it’s most likely to conclude on Day 2, tomorrow.
