Event #1 has really begun with a bang! The floor is filling up quickly with 185 entries just three levels in, as the late registration period rolls on. Players are only permitted one re-entry for today’s exciting event until the beginning of level seven at 2:15pm. The $10,000 prize pool guarantee has more than tripled at this point, stay tuned for the final numbers once the late registration period is closed.
Here’s a look at some early action from the field:
Welcome to the $200 + $20 Seniors’ Series 2020! This is the first of five open events reserved exclusively for participants who are 50 years of age or older and features a guaranteed prize pool of $10,000. Competitors are also playing to qualify for the Championship Event that concludes the Series. The top 40% in each open event receive points toward the series leaderboard and the top 30 point earners will receive an entry into the Championship Event. $20 are withheld from each buy-in to make up the Championship prize pool.
Players begin with a stack of 25,000 in chips and play 10-handed through 20-minute blinds for the first 12 levels. Blinds move to 30-minutes at level 13 and level length is reverted to 20 minutes when heads-up play begins. This is a single re-entry event with one entry and just one re-entry permitted until the end of the late registration period at the beginning of level seven. The final table will begin when ten players remain.
Good luck to all competitors!
