Event #2 in the 2018 WPT Montreal Festival – the Main Event – was a $5,000 + $300 NL Hold’em tournament with one online Day 1, 3 Live Day 1s, and featured Day 2 registration until the end of level 10. The event had a $5,000,000 guarantee, and the 792 total entries failed to meet this number. Therefore, the prize pool is based on the Guarantee number, not the prize pool generated by participants. 103 places will pay in the event with a min-cash of $11,400 and a top prize of $855,000.
