Day 1c of the TonyBet Winter Festival Main Event is the 3rd of 3 starting flights in this $1,000 + $100 NL Hold’em tournament with a $500,000 guaranteed prize pool. Traditionally the final starting day is the largest, as satellite seat holders and players who decided in advance to stick to a single entry in the tourney all tend to choose this day. This means that the final starting day can be significantly busier than any previous starting flight.
320 entries have already joined the tournament so far, and of those 320, 88 have qualified for Day 2. Remember that players who qualify for Day 2 on more than one starting day will see their smaller stack (or stacks) retired from play, and only their largest Day 1 total will be used upon the restart for Day 2.
Late registration today is available until 4pm – which is to say that players may join the tournament any time until the end of the break following level 6. Just 2 levels after that will be a dinner break, following which players will return for the final 5 levels to be played on Day 1c.
Good luck!
