The late registration period has come to a close and in the end, the WPTDeepstacks has attracted a total of 704 players, smashing the $500,000 guaranteed prize pool! As soon as the prizes are announced they will be published here in a post.
The chip average is now just over 50,000 and the leader of the pack is Omid Shahbazian, playing a stack of 174,400 chips (174 BB’s). He is followed in second place by Mohammad Abu-Hadbah with 136,300 chips (136 BB’s).
With the blinds now becoming more serious, and with almost 5,000,000 chips in play, there will be many large pots coming up and the chips will certainly be moving around the felt from player to player. The next break will offer a good indication as to where the big stacks really are as it is still anyone’s game.
