A little more than 2 full levels remain for the WPT500 Day 1C players, as level 14 is nearing completion. In around an hour the remaining players will bag and tag their chips onto Day 2, which takes place on Monday October 29th.

As we enter level 3 of the WPT500 Day 1D, the tables are quickly filling up in Playground Poker Club`s brand new expansion. Today, a new cohort of players are all vying for their spot in next week`s Day 2 – along with several players from last night`s Day 1B, who appear to be taking another shot at the glory that eluded them yesterday.
There have already been 168 entries so far this evening, which is only 8 fewer less than the total for all of last night, so the action looks to be heating up early. And we are still a full 3 hours and 45 minutes away from the end of registration for today`s tournament, so if the weather has got you down come have a meal, watch some sports and take your shot at the WPT500`s Day 1D!
Level 13 has just started, and we’re down to 135 players. After the break, following level 12, we did a chip count and discovered that Leslie Indoe has opened up a lead with a stack of 301,000 chips.
| First Name | Prénom | Last Name | Nom | Stack | Tapis |
|---|---|---|
| Leslie | Indoe | 301,000 |
| Jesse | Johnston | 290,000 |
| Giuseppe | Corapi | 198,000 |
| Dylan | Maille Thibault | 197,500 |
| Tyler | Carslaw | 194,000 |
| Marco | Casa | 189,000 |
| Dennis | Zekios | 171,000 |
Well over 100 players are already at their seats in the Day 1D of the WPT500, and we can expect this number to continue to grow up until the end of the registration period.
As with the previous flights, players are allowed up to one re-entry per flight, with registration open until the start of level 11 at roughly 11:30pm.

Level 12 is nearly complete, and players will have a short 15-minute break before sitting down for their final 4 levels of the day.

Tonight is the 4th of the 7 Live starting flights in the WPT500, and if today’s attendance in Day 1C is any indication, tonight should be a blockbuster! So far, though 6 flights (3 online, 3 live), participation in the WPT500 is up to 1,033 entries – well on the way to building a huge prize pool!
Action tonight will again be taking place in the new addition to the Playground Complex – players in this year’s WPT Montreal are getting a sneak peek into what all of the construction is about! Reports last night were very positive, for the new play area, the Player’s Buffet, and the partypoker Lounge.
Tournament staff are making their announcements now and cards will be in the air in just seconds… Good luck to everyone playing!
