Four flights are down and two more to go for the LHPO opening event and the $400 Deep Stack NLH tournament should hit its $1,000,000 guarantee before cards go in the air for Flight E. Only 102 new entries are needed so that seven-digit prize pool is a lock.

Event 1 players start with 20K deep stacks and all Day 1 levels last 30 minutes, increasing to 40 minutes on Day 2 and 60 when 24 players remain. Late registration and unlimited re-entries are available until the start of Level 9 at 2:30 pm.

Flight E will play down to the last 12.5% and survivor will return tomorrow at 1 pm in the money.
