Late registration has come to a close in Day 1B, and this second live flight attracted 93 players, bringing the live tally up to 149 players with 9 more live flights to go.
A total of 28 starting flights are scheduled for this $500K guaranteed event, part of which can be found online on partypoker.net. So far 51 players have locked in a seat through the 11 starting flights which have already been completed online, as well as 6 from the first live starting flight from earlier today.
With 93 players signed up for Day 1B, action will continue tonight until only 10 players remain, who will then bag and tag their chips onto Day 2. Any player who qualifies a stack onto Day 2 automatically receives a $400 cash prize, making it well worth the while to play multiple starting flights.
Through 6 levels of play, it is Jean-Francois Langevin who leads the field, being the only player above the 100K mark so far. A few other players are also off to a strong start, listed below:
