Event 1 Flight B: Cruising the Guarantee

$600 Deep Stack NLH (Re-Entry)
$1,000,000 Guaranteed | Structure
Level 1:  100/100

We are heading into the first weekend of the Lucky Hearts Poker Open and we are going to hit our first big number. With a combined 1,290 entries in Event 1 already through two flights, the $600 Deep Stack tournament should easily surpass its $1,000,000 guarantee this afternoon.

That will set it on a path towards at least doubling that money and getting a real big number.

Players start with 20,000 deep stacks and all Day 1 levels last 30 minutes, going up to 40 minutes on Day 2. Late registration is available until the start of Level 9 at 2:30 pm with unlimited re-entry options during that time.

We expect a huge crowd that will only grow over the last four flights and we can’t wait to see our friends again as they begin to come into town.

Farid Jattin

Flight B of Event 1 has come to an end with Farid Jattin bagging the overall chip lead through two flights.

Jattin’s 748,000 is nearly double that of his nearest competitor in Flight B, while Mark Perry’s 501,000 chip-leading Flight A stack is now a distant second to Jattin’s.

With about 600,000 when hand-for-hand play began, Jattin chipped up even further during those few hands en route to his bagging a whopping 120 big blinds.

Full chip counts through Flight B will be posted in a little while.
