In just minutes, the $1,500 + $150 NL Hold’em Second Chance event – Event 13 in the Playground Winter Festival presented by partypoker.net – will get underway in the Tournament Hall. This is an opportunity for everyone who played in the WPT Playground to take another shot at a relatively high-buy-in tournament.
The Second Chance event is a little different than a WPT, however, in that it’s a pure freezeout event. There is a single Day 1 – today – and players have to have their wits about them from right from the start of the tourney. With a $150,000 Guaranteed prize pool, it’s certainly worth the effort!
Players will start with 25K in chips and blind levels throughout the tournament will be 45 minutes long (or at least until the final 2 players are heads-up – then blinds levels will increase every 30 minutes). This is a 2 Day event and play will continue today for 15 levels.
Players have until the end of level 6 to register in the event, and as usual we expect a good number of players to take the opportunity to late reg.
Good luck!
