The first live action in the Playground 200 is still a few days away, but a number of players have already secured their spots in Saturday’s Day 2 thanks to the Online Day 1 that was held yesterday afternoon on partypoker.
The Online Day 1 brought out 38 entries, 13 of which advanced stacks to Day 2. Seven players were able to play this flight at a huge discount, thanks to the two satellites held on partypoker prior to the Playground 200 flight.
The online chip leader will have a stack of 108,000 in chips waiting at Playground for Day 2. Two other players managed to surpass the 100K mark during the Online Day 1, resulting in an average qualifying stack of 73,000.
The Playground 200 will take over the tournament hall on Thursday and Friday this week with four scheduled starting flights. The flights will start at 11:00am and 7:00pm each day; they permit unlimited re-entries, and players can enter as many starting flights as they wish to advance the largest possible qualifying stack.
