Exactly 800 entries joined one of the 3 starting flights in the partypoker Mega Overlay which wrapped up on Sunday afternoon. Of the 800 who started, 206 came back for Day 2, and of that number, 97 were guaranteed entries in the $1M Guarantee partypoker WPT Canadian Spring Championship. The 97 seats includes an amazing 25 seats that were ADDED to the prize pool by partypoker!
The action was quick at the outset of Day 2, but slowed down considerably as the bubble approached. By the end of the action, blinds had risen to 6K/12K with a 1K ante. When play dropped to 101 players the tournament moved to hand-for-hand action, but with more than 10 tables still active, things continued to move relatively briskly. After just a couple of hands there were two players who busted on the same hand to share the first $400 bubble prize and just one hand later another player was eliminated to claim the other $400 bubble prize.
And with that, the tournament was over and dealers and floor managers awarded each of the 97 players remaining an official entry ticket to the Main Event on their choice of starting day.
