Total Entries: 87

With Event 10 getting into the money, we popped our heads into the smaller meeting room to check on the $1,650 Purple Chip Bounty gang that is closing on its first break.

The entrant count stands at 87 to easily surpass the $100,000 guarantee with more than four more hours to register.

We found Brian Phillis, TK Miles, David Diaz, Daren Stabinski, and Cathy Dever in action along with Seminole Hard Rock Poker team members Sheddy Siddiqui, Darryll Fish, and Cate Hall.

We’ll grab a round of chip counts during the break and see who’s doing well early.

Level 1: 25/50

The second bounty tournament on today’s schedule is a big one. Event 12 has a $1,650 buy-in with a $100,000 guaranteed prize pool and a $500 bounty on every player’s head.

Knock someone out, get a purple $500 cash chip. Easy game.

Bounty tournaments are generally a little more aggressive than normal, they loosen up for the chance to pocket money long before the bubble. But this one will be a little more cautious because of the bigger buy-in and also there is only a single re-entry option if a player is busted out.

Players sit down to 12,000 starting stacks and the first ten levels are 30 minutes long. Late registration and that single re-entry are available until the start of Level 11, when they return from dinner at 9pm, and they switch to 40-minutes long. Day 1 will conclude after Level 16 and the remaining players will return tomorrow to play it out.
