    Up first, at 4:00pm is a $1,500 + $150 re-entry satellite that guarantees at least 10 Main Event seats. Players will start with 100,000 in chips and play 20-minute levels until only the qualifiers remain. Unlimited re-entries are permitted until the beginning of the ninth level of play at 6:55pm.

    A $1,030 + $100 turbo re-entry satellite that guarantees another 10 Main Event seats will get underway at 8:00pm. Starting with 100,000 in chips, the players will grind through 15-minute levels until Main Event seats are awarded to the qualifiers. As with all other satellites, unlimited re-entries are available during the late registration period so players can (re-)enter until 10:15pm.

    Between these two satellites, at least 20 players will qualify for the Main Event. The second and final Main Event starting flight is tomorrow, take advantage of the chance to play your way in today!

    Among the 79 satellite qualifiers, a few local players can be seen at the tables, including our STEP qualifiers.  Several of them qualified as much as six months ago and were eager to get into the action today.

    Among them are Christine Park, Carlo Nini, Marc Saddik, Jean-Philippe Lehoux, Ivan Driard, Eric Ranger and Carlo Nini.  Through Step Satellites, players could qualify for the Main Event for as little as $90, or through Playground’s monthly leaderboard.  Click here to see the video collection featuring them.

    There are presently 233 entries and late registration will be open until the beginning of level 5, at approximately 4:30pm.  Remember that this is a next-day re-entry event with a single entry permitted until the end of the late registration period, on each Day 1.  A player may play Day 1B even if they have survived Day 1A with chips.  However, if a player survived Day 1A and chooses to play Day 1B, their qualified stack from Day 1A will be forfeited with no possibility of recovery.

    On the road to the Main Event

    May 20, 2019May 20, 2019 | 5:16am | Playground

    The MILLIONS North America offers lots of way to qualify for the Main Event, and the first direct satellite of the series was held tonight.

    Tonight’s satellite guaranteed 10 seats for the Main Event, which starts on Tuesday, May 21 with Day 1A at 12:00pm, followed by Day 1B on Wednesday, May 22 at 12:00pm. The Main Event follows a next-day re-entry format, which means that each player is only allowed two bullets, and not on the same flight.

    In tonight’s satellite, it took no less than 27 levels of grueling action to reduce the 121 entries down to 12 players. In the end, with blinds at 50K / 100K, and the average stack at 10 bb’s, the players made a deal that allowed both Fernand Gaudreault and Nick Nickoletopoulos to receive a cash prize. This allowed the ten remaining players to secure one of the precious MILLIONS Main Event tickets up for grabs.

    Congratulations are in order for the ten qualifiers:

    • Aaron Roy Parsons
    • Vladas Tamasauskas
    • Sebastien Vezina
    • Richard Christopher Singh
    • Christopher Taylor
    • Azim Popatia
    • Ali Keshavarz
    • Senthuran Vijayaratnam
    • Ha Van Nguyen
    • Arkadi Karakhanov

    If you didn’t get a chance to get in on the satellite action tonight, don’t worry, there are six more satellites (each with a 10 seat guarantee) to choose from:

    • Monday May 20 at 3:00pm – $515 + $50
    • Monday May 20 at 7:00pm (Turbo) – $1,030 + $100
    • Tuesday May 21 at 10:00am – $1,030 + $100
    • Tuesday May 21 at 4:00pm (Turbo) – $1500 + $150
    • Tuesday May 21 at 8:00pm – $515 + $50
    • Wednesday May 22 at 10:00am – $1,030 + $100
