All of the online and live Phase 1 tournaments have now been completed and now that the dust has settled, we can report that there were a total of 235 Day 1 qualifiers who will be carrying their successful Phase 1 stacks forward to a Day 1 in the partypoker Million North America!
With 2 Online Day 1s already in the rear-view window (the results are published), 22 of those Phase 1 stacks have already been used, leaving 213 Phase 1 stacks that are still available to use for entry or re-entry in either of the two Live Day 1s.
For the record, the average stack size of these qualified Phase 1 stacks is 902,000 chips – just about 10% below the Day 1 starting stack size of 1,000,000 chips. The difference can be accounted for by the fact that the number of seats awarded in a Phase 1 was rounded up – so a Phase 1 with 32 players awarded 4 seats.
Good luck to all Phase 1 winners as the Million moves to Day 1!
