Players are filing in and taking in the scene here at the Tournament Tent. As is the custom an impressive team is ready to greet them. From the lovely waiting staff, the chef at the buffet, the tournament personnel and, of course, the squad of black-clad dealers, everything is ready. The boards are already showing 203 entries and the number rises every time we look up. This promises to be quite the event.
This 2-day event has only one Day1 and it’s happening now. There is, however, plenty of time to make it down here and register. The registration period will be open until the end of the break following level 9 (i.e. the beginning of level 10). With blinds set at 40 minutes that gives the players more than six hours (roughly until 10:45pm) to register. This is a freezout tournament so re-entry will not be permitted.
Since this is a Monster Stack tournament the players will start with 30,000 chips. Play on Day 1 continues until the end of level 12, while play on Day 2 will continue until a winner is crowned! This tournament features a $150,000 Guaranteed prize pool.
As we are writing this the tournament director has just said the 4 magic words: “Shuffle-up and deal!”
