With 785 entries so far here on Day 1B, the total field is up to 1,920, and the prizepool is worth more than $6.14 million, more than doubling the $3 million guarantee. Registration remains open with unlimited re-entries until 9:15 pm.

There will be a 90-minute dinner break after Level 6 (around 5:30 pm), and action will continue tonight until the end of Level 10, around 11:15 pm.
