There were 2,136 entries through the Day 1 starting flights in the 2018 WSOP-C Playground Main Event, and registration is open on Day 2, so being added to the more than 820 qualifiers are as many new entries and re-entries as wish to play today. So far, there are 135 additional entries, bringing the total number to 2,271 and the number of players at the tables today to 933.
The beginning of the day was slightly delayed in order to make sure that such a huge number of players were accommodated, but before long everything was ready to go. The players took their seats, unbagged their chips and all that was left was for Mike Sexton to deliver the introduction and give the ceremonial order to dealers: “Shuffle up and Deal”!
Action today is slated to continue until the end of level 20, and each level is 60 minutes in length. There will be breaks following every second level and a dinner break following level 16. Entries and re-entries are permitted until the beginning of level 13 – in other words, until the end of the break following level 12.
Good luck to everyone playing today!
