The Grand Prix Canada shifts into the next gear today with two more live starting flights and the final online starting flight. Day 1C kicked off at noon, Day 1D gets going at 5:00pm, and your last chance at an online starting flight on partypoker is this evening at 7:00pm.
So far, 100 players have advanced stacks to Day 2, and they will be joined by many more following this action-packed day. To see the combined Day 1 results, click here.
For all live starting flights, players will start with 100,000 in chips to play through as many 30-minute levels as needed to reduce the field to one in seven entries, at which point the money will be reached and the remaining players will advance to Day 2. Each live Day 1 will start 10-handed and move to 9-handed play as soon as possible.
The Grand Prix Canada is a re-entry event with unlimited re-entries permitted until the end of the late registration period at the beginning of level 11, which will arrive at 5:30pm on Day 1C. Players may enter additional Day 1s even if they have survived a previous Day 1 with chips. Players who qualify for Day 2 more than once resume play on Day 2 with their largest qualifying stack; all other qualifying stacks are forfeited. Players would, however, retain the associated cash prize for every forfeited stack.
Good luck to all!
