Day 1E of The $250 Frenzy has just entered the third level of the day and there are 176 players registered so far with just over an hour of late registration remaining. Here are some photos of the early action today.

Welcome to Day 1E!
The $250 Frenzy has begun it’s final day of qualifying flights, and as usual the first one kicked off at 11am and the 6th and final flight will get underway tonight at 7:30pm. The field is about 5 minutes into this 5th starting day with 120 players seated with many more sure to join the action.
Late registration is available for 4 levels plus the first break this afternoon, which means that players can join with a full stack any time until 1:15pm. The blinds in level 5 are just 150/300/a50 and the chip average will likely be no more than 22.5K (approx), so there’s very little disadvantage to late registering for the event.
Good luck to everyone playing today!
Event 3 Day 1D – final chip counts
Here are the final chip counts for Day 1D of The $250 Frenzy, Event 3 of the Playground Poker Spring Classic 2015 presented by partypoker.net. There were a total of 204 entrants in this starting flight of Event 3. 39 of these players have qualified for Day 2, which will start on Monday, April 27th at 7pm.
Any player may play in one or more additional starting flights. In the event that a player qualifies in two or more Day 1s, only their largest stack will move forward to Day 2. We will provide detailed records of any such activity when the official seating draw for Day 2 is released.
