$3,500 WPT Poker Showdown Championship
$3,000,000 Guaranteed | Structure
Level 1:  100/200 with a 200 ante
Day 1B Entries:  460

Players keep showing up and we keep finding seats for them. The 1,430 combined entries already pushed the prize pool over $4.5 million with another round number in the near future.

A few more familiar faces include Nicole Diaz, Adam Zeltser, Duff Charette, Ralph Massey, Jeff Morzella, Rodney Turvin, and Chance Kornuth.

Diaz hadn’t planned on making the trip from Orlando for the Champioship. She was part of the huge $1,000,000 guarantee Event 15 field and that was it for her.

Then Nadya Magnus ran a poker-related brain teaser on Twitter with the prize being a Championship set. Magnus, the reigning GPI Female Player of the Year, has generously done this in the past and this time around it was Diaz on the receiving end of the good fortune.

Magnus herself is already set for Day 2 after bagging 197,500 in Flight A.
