Anyone interested in playing in today’s $1,500 + $150 Second Chance event has just 40 more minutes to register – late reg closes at the end of the next break. There are still a few players here at the club who are likely to jump in the tournament at the last minute, so the final number should be a little bit north of the current 120 player field size.
There are a lot of great players in the event, including some touring pros as well as some local players that have distinguished themselves on the felts. Some of the players of note include:

- Carter Swidler
- Jason Conforti
- Michael Korovine
- Chris Arvanitis
- Tomas Larivée Magni
