We are down to the final 10 players of Day 1B. Going in to the final table, Francis Dery has maintained his chip lead, but anything can happen at this stage. The average stack is now 96,000, for nearly 20 big blinds.
With 105 entries (including re-entries) through the first two Day 1s, the Crazy $80 is on pace for some overlay.
What’s an overlay, you ask? When there’s a prize pool guarantee, the overlay is the amount that has to be made up between the prize pool generated by buy-ins and the guaranteed amount. It’s a great value for players because the tournament is just a little bit easier to navigate with fewer players in the field – but the prize pool remains the same!
There are two more Day 1s to be played, one tomorrow and the other on Thursday, each offering unlimited re-entries during the first four levels of play. In past events, we`ve seen a tendency for the later start flights to draw larger fields and more re-entries but nothing is guaranteed, except for the $20,000 prize pool, so head down to Playground for a chance to get some of that value!
