There are now a total of 167 entries (including 10 re-entries), and with a full three hours left in the re-entry period and for late registration, the first Day 1 flight already looks like it will have a huge field. Who knows what the total number of entries will be? Last year records were set when there were a total of 3,503 total entries, and Jason Mandanici-Turcot was the event champion, taking home a cool $125,130 in cash and the first-ever WSOP-C Playground Championship Ring!
