Event 9 Day 1C: Third Chance at the $1 Million

$570 No Limit Hold’em Re-Entry
Level 1: 25/50

The 2016 Seminole Hard Rock Poker Showdown is rolling into the second weekend of the series and today’s main schedule features nothing but players aiming to get a piece of a $1 million prize pool.

The next two flights of Event 9 run today as the $570 buy-in tournament climbs closer to reaching that $1 million guaranteed prize pool. Yesterday saw 713 combined entrants take their shot with 129 advancing to play Day 2 on Sunday. Joshua Hood holds a big lead over the field but there are four more flights of players trying to catch him.

Entrants begin with 20,000 starting stacks and play 30-minute levels throughout the day. The registration desk is open for Flight C until the start of Level 9 at 3:30pm and unlimited re-entries are available during that time. Play will conclude at the end of Level 14 and anyone still with chips will bag them up for a Sunday Day 2 return.

Early-start players are in their seats and about to get underway.
