Today marks the last chance to play a starting flight of the WPT Montreal Main Event. With 165 players already seated, Day 1C should be the largest of all of the starting flights.
With a prize pool guarantee of $3,000,000, the Main Event has brought out players from far and wide. It features eight 60-minute levels of on each starting flight, and starts players with 40,000 in chips. Following a multiple re-entry structure, players are permitted one entry and one re-entry per starting flight, as well as on Day 2 prior to the end of the late registration and re-entry period at the beginning of level 13 (4:30pm). Players can enter multiple starting flights; if a player advances multiple stacks to Day 2 then they will resume play with their largest qualifying stack.
There are also two last chance Main Event satellites taking place today at 1:00pm and at 6:00pm, so if you have been on the fence about jumping in, these $330 + $30 satellites might just be the answer.
The floor staff have just announced “dealers…shuffle up and deal!” The cards are in the air, and it is game on!
