Play has just resumed following the second break in the action. The field is down to 40 players, out of 83 entries.

Event #13 of the Playground Winter Festival is now ramping up. Halfway through the first level, registration is moving along steadily with 39 players in the running. This event permits unlimited re-entries during the first four levels so we expect the action will be heating up as we approach the 9:30pm cut off for late registration and re-entries.

Hurry down to Playground to join the action and take your shot at the $30,000 guaranteed prize pool!
