The players in the Deepstack Turbo are taking their first break of the day, and while they are on break, the last of the late registrants will be permitted to join the tourney. The final number for the tourney should be around the current 130 players, which will add up to a tidy prize pool for a Monday morning!
The structure of this tournament is a little different than other Spring Classic tourneys in that antes start a little later – they’ll start in level 6 when players return from break, and the initial ante will be 100 chips. This marks the first real “inflection point” in the tournament, as pots will get bigger, and faster, with antes at stake and not just the blinds. Experienced players in this format will take that into account and some significant accumulations should result.
