The second live flight in the WPT500 is about to begin. Day 1A saw a very respectable 183 entries take part here at Playground, and players are still battling it out in the Tournament Hall for a spot in Day 2. Day 1B gets off at 5:00pm sharp, and another wave of players will start their WPT Montreal adventure.
The WPT500 Montreal boasts a $1,066,000 guarantee, made up of $1,000,000 in cash and 20 Main Event seats. These seats will be awarded to the top 20, on top of their handsome payout. With so much on the line, we can expect some serious poker to be played!
Players start with 30,000 chips and play 30-minute levels until the number of players left in the field has dwindled down to 1 in 7 entries, at which point the money is reached. Remember that anyone can play as many flights as they wish, whether they have survived a previous Day 1 with chips or not. Best stack advances, and players retain the minimum cash prize for all abandoned stacks!
Good luck!
