It’s a slightly chilly but lovely Saturday morning in the Montreal area, and players are beginning to assemble now for the start of the 3rd of 6 starting flights in The $250 Frenzy, aka Event 3 in the Playground Poker Spring Classic presented by partypoker.net. Play gets underway at 11am and will continue through 14 30-minute levels today – and everyone left with chips at the end of the day will have qualified for Day 2.
This is a next-day re-entry event, meaning that players many enter as many of the 6 starting flights as they wish (one entry per “day”) to try and qualify for the restart on Day 2. If a player qualifies twice, only his or her largest stack will remain in play when action resumes on Monday evening – all other chips will be removed.
With a $200,000 prize pool guarantee – and quite likely a final prize pool quite a bit larger than that – there is tremendous value in this tourney, enough for players to take a few tries to qualify.
Good luck to all on the felts today! Your chip-lead target so far is over 300K – so you’ve got some work to do!
